Aim: The aims of this research were; to establish a range of values for corneal sensitivity in normal subjects as measured using the Cochet-Bonnet aesthesiometer; to determine if the measurement of corneal sensitivity in one eye affected subsequent measurements in the fellow eye; and to determine if there is a difference in corneal sensitivity between fellow eyes.
Methods: Thirty four subjects aged between 18 and 30 who did not wear contact lenses had their central corneal sensitivity measured in both eyes. The average of three readings was taken as the measurement for each eye. In 15 subjects, measurement was taken …
