Afegir etiqueta | Sumari: | This research work was realized in Loja city to determine the relationship between myopia and pachymetry of Pio Jaramillo Alvarado high school`s students taking into account the values to the corneal thickness refers to the contrast information and relate it to the age groups for which it was carried out, possess local information of the average value of central corneal thickness to identify suitability for the respective treatment of refractory defect‘s correction, this is a prospective, descriptive and cross-sectional study where the myopic pachymetric results are going to be determine in the educational institution`s students. In recent years, one of the most interesting developments in the field of pachymetry has been the study of the cornea´s biomechanics and the influences of the age, gender and ethnicity on its values considering it as biomechanics and dynamic identity like an important indicator of cornea’s health state. Therefore, the importance of obtaining this information and after being thoroughly studied brings the next results: in this population was identified almost in its entirety a mild myopia grade, being more frequent between 14 and 17 years and the corneal thickness in the studied population is 555.6 microns that´s greater than the average established as reference values. Therefore, this find expands the treatment`s possibility to correct the refractory defect that includes refractive surgery. Keywords: myopia, corneal thickness, refraction, autorefractometer. |
