This study showed that the change in intraocular pressure following photorefractive keratectomy was not clinically significant, and ruled out a correlation in this context between the change in central corneal thickness and the delta intraocular pressure. Our results might question the axiom between central corneal thickness and intraocular pressure and may thus challenge the current clinical setting for evaluating glaucoma.
