Analysis of total corneal astigmatism with a rotating Scheimpflug camera in keratoconus

lens densitometry changes after corneal collagen cross-linking in patients with keratoconus using pentacam scheimpflug camera

purpose: to evaluate densitometry of crystalline lens after cxl procedure in keratoconic patients. methods: in a quasi-experimental study three-dimensional lens densitometry was performed by pentacam scheimpflug camera at base line and 6 months later. subject group contained patients with diagnosed progressive keratoconus who underwent cxl surgery (n = 40). control group contained aged-matched ...

Lens Densitometry after Corneal Cross-linking in Patients with Keratoconus Using a Scheimpflug Camera

PURPOSE To evaluate changes in crystalline lens densitometry following corneal cross-linking (CXL) in keratoconic patients. METHODS In a quasi-experimental study, three-dimensional lens densitometry was performed using the Pentacam Scheimpflug camera (Oculus Optikgerate GmbH, Wetzlar, Germany) at baseline and six months after CXL. Densitometry was performed in a fixed area of 2 inch × 1 inch ...

Anterior surface-based keratometry compared with Scheimpflug tomography-based total corneal astigmatism.

PURPOSE Description of total corneal refractive power (TCRP) astigmatism by ray tracing using a Scheimpflug tomographer. METHODS Analysis of Scheimpflug tomography measurements to determine 3-mm-zone TCRP astigmatism (CATCRP) by ray tracing calculations, astigmatism in 15°-zone from simulated keratometry (CASim-K), anterior-surface astigmatism (CAant), and posterior-surface astigmatism (CApos...

Importance of Posterior Corneal Astigmatism in Eyes with Keratoconus

Corneal changes in progressive keratoconus after cross-linking assessed by Scheimpflug camera.

PURPOSE To evaluate corneal changes after corneal cross-linking (CXL) in progressive keratoconus with Scheimpflug imaging. METHODS This prospective analysis included 40 eyes from 22 patients with progressive keratoconus. Corneal CXL was performed in 25 eyes (CXL group) and 15 fellow eyes served as controls (control group). Uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), thinne...
