Cystic Fibrosis and New Trends by Ophthalmological Evaluation: A Pilot Study

Table 1

The baseline characteristics of 11 CF (cystic fibrosis) patients, 6 male and 5 female, are presented as mean ± SD. Glaucoma hemifield test (GHT) in FDT (frequency doubling technology) perimetry was borderline in 5/22, altered in 2/22, and normal in 15/22 eyes.

SD: standard deviation. IOP: intraocular pressure. VA: visual acuity. BCVA: best corrected visual acuity for far distance. RE: refractive error. Cup/disc: horizontal optic disc cupping area/optic disc area at slit lamp examination. Ht%: hematocrit. SpO₂%: oxyhemoglobin saturation. FEV1%: forced expiratory volume in one second. FVC%: forced vital capacity. MD: mean deviation. PSD: pattern standard deviation. CT: central threshold. TT: test time.
