TL;DR
Pentacam HR-derived tomographic and densitometric parameters may facilitate early identification of individuals with increased ectatic susceptibility and may facilitate early identification of individuals with increased ectatic susceptibility.
The findings demonstrate increased CT in both CK and SK, whereas most quantitative choroidal vascularity parameters remained unchanged, suggesting that choroidal thickening may represent an early structural alteration in the keratoconus spectrum.
Elevated serum LDL is significantly associated with keratoconus, suggesting a potential role of systemic metabolic factors and oxidative stress in its pathogenesis, and monitoring dyslipidemia may aid in risk stratification and management.
Background: Myopia is one of the most common refractive disorders worldwide and is frequently associated with astigmatism and corneal ectatic disorders such as keratoconus. Early identification of keratoconus in myopic individuals is essential for timely intervention and prevention of visual deterioration. Aim: To eval...
Aims: To compare biometric and topographic measurements obtained with the Aladdin optical biometer and the Pentacam Scheimpflug imaging system in eyes with low and moderate myopia, and to assess agreement between the two devices.Methods: This retrospective study included the right eyes of 58 patients with low or modera...
To investigate whether image-level exposure variation affects corneal densitometry (CD) and lens densitometry (LD) measurements obtained with the Pentacam HR, and to explore whether background densitometry (BD) can serve as an image-based surrogate of exposure. This retrospective paired-measurement study included two...
Background and Objectives: Diabetes mellitus (DM) may induce structural and biochemical changes in the cornea that can potentially affect corneal transparency. This study aimed to compare corneal optical density (COD) between patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and healthy controls and to evaluate its associa...
