Abstract

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between ocular components and refractive error for human eye. Ocular components were measured by keratometry, phakometry, and ultrasonography. Refractive error was measured by subjective refraction on 38 subjects aged from 17 to 30. The results were as follows; 1) Refractive error and axial length, vitreous chamber depth, axial length/corneal radius were highly correlated that the correlation coefficients were 0.95, 0.96, 0.95, respectively. 2) Refractive error and corneal radius, corneal power, lens thickness were correlated with the correlation coefficients for 0.60, 0.66, 0.67 respectively. 3) There were no significant correlation between refractive error and corneal thickness.

본 논문에서는 한국인 17세에서 30세사이의 38명을 대상으로 Vision Tester로 자각적 굴절이상을 측정하고, 난시가 있는 사람은 등가구면도수틀 취했다. 각막 굴절력과 곡율반경은 Baush & Lomb사 Keratometer로 측정했으며 전방의 깊이, 수정체의 두께, 초자체의 깊이, 안축의 길이 등은 A-mode Ultrasonography로 측정 했고, 각막 두께는 Phakometry로 측정했다. 굴절이상과 안광학요소의 상관계수를 구한 결과 안축의 길이, 초자체의 깊이, AL/CR 비와는 각각 0.95, 0.96, 0.95로 아주 높은 상관관계가 있었고, 각막곡율반경, 굴절력, 수정체의 두께와는 각각 0.60, 0.66, 0.67로 나타났으며, 각막의 두께와는 괄목할 만한 상관관계가 없었다.
