biostudies-literatureUnknown21(1)Park HM<h4>Background</h4>Central corneal thickness (CCT) and its association with intraocular pressure, which is a pivotal parameter in glaucoma management, has previously been reported. In this study, we intended to investigate the long-term change of CCT in terms of rate in eyes with primary angle-closure (PAC). Additionally, we aimed to analyze events that could affect CCT.<h4>Methods</h4>In this retrospective study, 26 patients with PAC who had a follow-up period of more than 5 years were analyzed. The rate of CCT changes from baseline was evaluated from the serial CCT measurements over the average follow-up period. The pattern of CCT change rate according to modes of treatment and history of angle-closure attack was analyzed using the repeated linear mixed model analysis.<h4>Results</h4>A tBMC ophthalmology145https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC7986557biostudies-literatureRate of central corneal thickness changes in primary angle closure eyes: long-term follow-up results.PMC7986557Lee WJUhm KBPark HMChoi JfalseRate of central corneal thickness changes in primary angle closure eyes: long-term follow-up results.<h4>Background</h4>Central corneal thickness (CCT) and its association with intraocular pressure, which is a pivotal parameter in glaucoma management, has previously been reported.
