ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To assess intraocular pressure measured with a Goldmann tonometer over a period of 1 year after implantation of a Worst-Fechner anterior chamber phakic intraocular lens to correct myopia of -7.00 D or more. METHODS: We performed a prospective, non-masked study of 100 patients (100 myopic eyes) who had a Worst-Fechner phakic intraocular lens implanted to correct myopia of -7.00 D or greater. Central corneal Goldmann tonometry was performed before surgery and 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery. The influence of different variables was assessed. RESULTS: IOP showed a significant increase of a mean 2.1 mmHg at 3 months after surgery (P=.001). There was not a statistically significant difference between IOP before surgery and 6 months after PIOL implantation (P=.244) or 1 year after surgery (P=.845). In one eye, the lens was explanted 11 months after surgery because of the presence of ocular hypertension. No variables studied showed a statistically significant difference from before to after surgery. CONCLUSIONS: Worst-Fechner anterior chamber phakic intraocular lens implantation led to a slight transitory increase of intraocular pressure during the first 3 months after surgery, but returned to preoperative levels by 6 months after implantation.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: Se analizan los factores que condicionan el bajo nivel de conocimientos en lengua inglesa por parte de algunos grupos de alumnos de doctorado y se plantea la conveniencia de incluir el inglés médico como disciplina en los planes de estudio de la licenciatura en medicina. Material y método: Se ha elaborado un cuestionario para valorar los conocimientos de inglés general y específico que ha sido cumplimentado de forma anónima por cada uno de los alumnos de tercer ciclo que han realizado sus estudios de doctorado a lo largo de los cursos académicos: 1990-1991 a 1995-1996 y que han concluido y defendido su tesis doctoral hasta el pasado curso 1998-1999. Resultados: La mayor parte de nuestros encuestados supera los 32 años y estudiaron francés en su formación preuniversitaria. Para la mitad de la muestra, el inglés se debería incluir como asignatura obligatoria en la licenciatura.Conclusiones: Un significativo porcentaje de nuestros estudiantes de tercer ciclo (86 per cent) necesita especial apoyo de inglés para preparar su tesis doctoral de forma eficaz (AU)
