Brief Summary: Corneal topographic parameters in different degrees of obstructive sleep apnea
Detailed Description: Obstructive sleep apnea OSA syndrome is a disease characterized by recurrent total or partial upper airway collapse during sleep interrupting or reducing the airflow and after ward resulting in temporary awakening which causes restoration of flow of the upper airway These intermittent complete apnea or partial hypopnea respiratory cessations decrease blood oxygen levels hypoxia

Upper airway stenosis causes hypoxemia and hypercapnia which can lead to multiple organ dysfunction and is associated with systemic diseases such as hypertension diabetes and coronary arteriosclerosis and changes in the eyes include floppy eyelid syndrome keratoconus and glaucoma

The prevalence of OSA is between 2 and 10 in females and 4-20 in males and obesity is a major risk factor for the development of OSA

With all the adverse effects associated with OSA its secondary effects cause several ocular complications Previous studies have shown that OSA is associated with increased risks of several vision-threatening and nonthreatening ocular disorders including senile cataracts normal-tension glaucoma retinal ischemia conjunctival hyperemia and dry eye

Several contributory mechanisms to the ocular complications of OSA have been reported including intermittent hypoxia oxidative stress systemic inflammatory responses such as interleukin-6 IL-6 IL-8 tumor necrosis factor-alpha TNF-α C-Reactive protein CRP matrix metalloproteinase 9 MMP-9 vascular cell adhesion molecule VCAM intercellular adhesion molecule ICAM selectins sympathetic system overaction damage effects of endothelin-1 and disruption of the blood-retinal barrier BRB 6-8 There are limited publications that manipulate the corneal topographic parameters in different degrees of OSA especially in the Egyptian population
