Purpose
To study the dynamics of epibulbar and intraocular temperature during vitreoretinal surgery.
Methods
This pilot study included 20 patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (10 eyes) and proliferative diabetic retinopathy (10 eyes). All patients underwent vitreoretinal surgery with room temperature irrigation solution. In all cases, the ambient temperature, the patient's body temperature,...
Purpose
To investigate the heat flux (HF) density from the ocular surface in healthy individuals.
Methods
This pilot study included 32 healthy individuals (64 eyes). Participants were divided into three age groups. They underwent a bilateral eye examination which included measurements of intraocular pressure, temperature of the external corneal surface, rheoophthalmography (ROG), and heat flux...
