| Summary: |
Purpose: The aim of
the study was to evaluate corneal temperature in
patients with dry eye syndrome, and in normal subjects
by measuring with infrared radiation thermography.
Material and methods: Each eye of 9 patients with
dry eye syndrome and each eye of 13 normal subjects,
were evaluated in this study. The corneal surface
temperature was measured during 15 seconds after opening
the eye.
Results: Mean corneal temperature was lower in
the dry eye syndrome patients compared with the control
group. Decrease in time of mean corneal temperature in
patients with dry eye syndrome, was lesser than in the
control group.
Conclusions: The study shows the usefulness of
thermography in the diagnosis of dry eye syndrome. |
