The Efficacy of Hyperemesis Gravidarum on Macular Thickness, Corneal Thickness and Intraocular Pressure in Pregnancy

Every participant was subjected to a comprehensive ophthalmologic examination which included measuring auto-refraction (average of three values, Topcon Autorefractometer model KM 8900, Japan), uncorrected visual acuity with cycloplegic refraction (with 0.5% cyclopentolate HCl), and IOP in millimeters of mercury (mmHg, Goldmann applanation tonometer). Moreover, slit-lamp biomicroscopy (HaagStreit, Bern, Switzerland) was performed, concentrating on potential corneal scarring and/or lenticular opacities.
