57 eyes of 57 healthy pregnant women who were visiting Obstetrics and Gynecology department for routine examination and 26 eyes of 26 non pregnant control subjects who were at the first week of the menstrual cycle were enrolled in the study. All subjects had a detailed ophthalmologic examination including the best corrected visual acuity with a Snellen chart, slit- lamp biomicroscopic evaluation, and indirect fundoscopy. The biomechanical properties Corneal Hysteresis, Corneal resistance factor, corneal compensated intraocular pressure and Goldmann-correlated intraocular pressure values were measured with ORA (Ocular Response Analyzer, software version 1.02, Reichert, Inc.) Central corneal thickness was measured with a built-in ultrasonic pachymeter attached to the ORA device.Axial length , Anterior chamber depth , and keratometry readings were acquired with an ocular biometer (IOLMaster; Carl-Zeiss Meditec, Inc.) before CCT determinations had been taken. Results of these parameters were compared between pregnant group and healthy control group.

| corneal biomechanical properties | Diagnostic Test | We want to investigate changes of corneal biomechanical properties during pregnancy. The Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA) evaluate the in vivo corneal biomechanical properties in form of corneal hysteresis (CH) and corneal resistance factor (CRF) |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| changes of corneal hysteresis during pregnancy | we analyzed the biomechanical properties of the cornea in terms of corneal hysteresis (mmHg) by using ocular response analyzer device in healthy pregnant women and compared the data with non pregnant women. | three months |
| changes of corneal resistance factor during pregnancy | we analyzed the biomechanical properties of the cornea in terms of corneal resistance factor (mmHg) by using ocular response analyzer device in healthy pregnant women and compared the data with non pregnant women. | three months |
