| Abstract | PURPOSE: To analyze the diagnostic efficacy of normalization of corneal deformation variables by the IOP in healthy, primary-angle closure (PACG), and primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) patients. METHODS: Fifty-nine healthy, 83 POAG, and 57 PACG eyes, matched for age and pachymetry, were included in a prospective, observational, cross-sectional study. Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT-IOP), Corvis-ST IOP, IOPg (Goldmann correlated), and IOPcc (cornea compensated) from the ocular response analyzer were acquired. Corneal hysteresis (CH) and corneal resistance factor (CRF) from the ORA, and deformation amplitude (DA) from Corvis-ST were analyzed. Further, ratios of CH, CRF, and DA to IOP were assessed among the groups and defined as new variables (e.g., ratio [CH, IOPcc] was the ratio of CH to IOPcc). RESULTS: Goldmann applanation tonometry-IOP, IOPcc, and IOPg of PACG and POAG eyes were significantly higher than normal (P < 0.05). Corvis-ST IOP of healthy eyes was similar to POAG (P > 0.05) but lower than PACG (P = 0.02). Corneal hysteresis and CRF of PACG and POAG were significantly lower than normal (P < 0.0001). The ratio (CH, IOPcc), ratio (CRF, IOPcc), and ratio (DA, IOPcc) of healthy eyes were significantly higher than those of PACG and POAG eyes (P < 0.0001). The sensitivity and specificity of ratio (CRF, IOPcc) and ratio (DA, IOPcc) was significantly better than CRF and DA alone in PACG eyes (P < 0.001). However in POAG, only the sensitivity and specificity of ratio (DA, IOPcc) was significantly better than DA alone (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Presence of glaucoma may be indicated better by ratio variables than by CH, CRF, or DA alone. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
