About

This retrospective study aims to investigate whether the MS39 and Pentacam are delivering comparable results in the diagnosis of keratoconus.

In the future, these measurement devices could be interchangeable in usage.

Full description

Keratoconus is a degenerative pathology of the cornea, which tends to progress. It comes along with central and paracentral thinning of the cornea as well as with an apical protrusion of the cornea. Keratoconus leads to vision loss. This pathology is diagnosed by using CE certified OCT technology in order to map the topography of the cornea. This process constitutes a really important step in the line of management of the keratoconus. MS39 and Pentacam are used for detection. Retrospectively, data will be investigated, in order to see if these measurement devices deliver comparable results. In the future, these measurement devices could be interchangeable in usage.
