  Purpose: To study the effect of biomechanical properties of the cornea on the intraocular pressure in eyes affected with Mucopolysaccharidosis type I-S (Scheie's syndrome). Methods: Four eyes of two patients in their mid-fifties diagnosed with Scheie's syndrome were investigated for corneal biomechanical properties. The corneal biomechanical profile was assessed by the use of Ocular response analyzer (ORA, Reichert Inc., of Buffalo, NY). Intraocular pressures were also checked using various tonometry devices to check for variability in the readings due to the corneal changes. Results: The intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements were noted to be high in both the patients at their initial presentation. Both the patients were put on topical anti glaucoma treatment and one underwent glaucoma filteration surgery as we.. View More»
