Abstract. Purpose:To evaluate the reliability of Pentacam® in the measurement of central corneal thickness. Cases and Method:This prospective study was made on 116 eyes of 116 patients with primary open-angle glaucoma. The age ranged from 35 to 82 years,average 61 years. Thickness of central cornea was measured by Pentacam®,ultrasonography and noncontact specular microscopy. Results:Central corneal thickness averaged 534.3±35.6μm by Pentacam®,526.5±33.9μm by ultrasonography,and 512.7±38.7μm by specular microscopy. These three values were significantly correlated. No significant difference was present between values by Pentacam® and ultrasonography(p=0.30). Values by Pentacam® and specular microscopy were significantly different(p<0.001). Conclusion:Pentacam® shows same values for central corneal thickness as ultrasonography in eyes with open-angle glaucoma.
