Correlation of Central Corneal Thickness and Axial Length in Myopes, Emmetropes and Hypermetropes

Aims and objective: To compare central corneal thickness and axial length inemmetropes, myopes and hypermetropes. Methods and Material: A cross sectionalstudy was carried out in patients presenting to ophthalmology OPD for routine eyecheckup at new Civil Hospital, Surat. Result and Conclusion: The study showed nostatistically significant difference between CCT in myopes, emmetropes andhyperopes. Changes in axial length were significant in myopes, emmetropes andhyperopes. There was no statistically significant difference between central cornealthickness in myopes, emmetropes and hyperopes.
