Keratoconus indices and corneal aberrations
Secondary outcome
NA.
Background summary
Detection of (subclinical) keratoconus has become increasingly relevant
because, for instance, its presence may affect the outcome of keratorefractive
procedures. With respect to measuring irregular corneal features, Color LED
Topography (CLT) is a potentially superior technology compared to other
topography techniques.
Study objective
To demonstrate that CLT is more sensitive for keratoconus detection compared to
other corneal topography methods.
Study design
Observational.
Study burden and risks
This is a non-invasive study, eye drops are not required. Risks are negligible
and burden is low. Measurements are performed at the time of a (single) regular
visit and take about 15 minutes extra time.
