| Abstract | ||||
| In this report, we presented a 33-year-old male patient complained of decrease vision of both eyes due to bilateral refractive error. The uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) in the right eye was 0.06 with best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) to 1 (in decimal) by a refraction of -2.50Ds -2.75Dc x15, while the UCVA in the left eye was 0.05 with best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) to 0.8 by a refraction of -4.75 Ds -2.50Dc x64. Corneal tomographic analysis was done for both eyes by Orbscan and showed normal corneal tomography with symmetrical bowtie but the thinnest pachymetry was very low. Both Orbscan examination and Scheimpflug based Oculus tomography were performed as a follow up for 4 years duration and the results show stable parameters. Evaluation of corneal biomechanical properties was done after one year using corneal visualization Scheimpflug technology (CST) with suspicious results which mainly explained by this extremely low corneal pachymetry with the same stable results after 3 years duration of follow up. | ||||
