要約: | Introduction: Islamic religious fasting is an action that inhibits its believers from consuming any food or
drink and sometimes fasting can also be observed on Mondays or Thursdays. Ocular biometry parameters
which include axial length, anterior chamber angle and depth play significant role in determining the
refractive power of the eye as well as in certain ocular conditions. Objective: The purpose of the study was to identify the effect of short-term fasting to the ocular biometry. Method: This prospective study included 37 healthy participants with a mean age of 22.51 ± 0.77 years old. The measurements were done on a day with non-fasting state (at 8.00 a.m. and 4.00 p.m.) and one week later during the fasting period (at 8.00 a.m. and 4.00 a.m.). Anterior chamber and angle were measured using Pentacam HR (Oculus, Germany) while axial length was measured using A-scan (Tomey AL-3000). Result: The results indicated no significant changes
between short-term fasting and non-fasting state with all the variables (p > 0.05). Similarly, no significant changes were noted during diurnal fluctuations with all the parameters (p > 0.05). Conclusion: There is no issue of reliability of the ocular biometric data when patients undergo short-term fasting state. |
