Were evaluated 138 eyes from 69 dogs, including 78 normal eyes and 60 eyes diagnosed with KCS. The tests were performed in the following sequence: the STT-1 was used to allocate the dogs to the normal group or the KCS group, followed by the SMT, TBUT, and LGT. The results in means and standard deviations for the normal group were: 23.68±4.25 (STT-1), 9.43±1.59 (SMT), and 23.06±6.95 (TBUT); LGT 7 positive eyes; and for the KCS group were: 6.20±4.45 (STT-1), 3.02±2.52 (SMT), and 11.62±4.53 (TBUT); LGT 14 positive eyes. There was a positive correlation between the SMT and the STT-1 and TBUT, as well as a negative correlation between the SMT and LGT. The correlation was very high between the SMT and STT-1 (r=0.87, p |
