چکیده

&t.&& All 670 subjects, age 18 to 25 y., from a single class were examined during the military duty incorporation pmcess in the French Armed Forces. Objective and mamfest refraction were determined with an autorefractometer and come.al topogra hy was assessed using a TMS-1 system. Data were analysed using 1 s descriptors of cornea1 powers distribution from the new TMS-1 statistical software and an artificial intelligence based keratoconus prediction index (KC%, version 1.5).

Short-term corneal changes with gas-permeable contact lens wear in keratoconus subjects: a comparison of two fitting approaches.

PURPOSE To evaluate changes in anterior corneal topography and higher-order aberrations (HOA) after 14-days of rigid gas-permeable (RGP) contact lens (CL) wear in keratoconus subjects comparing two different fitting approaches. METHODS Thirty-one keratoconus subjects (50 eyes) without previous history of CL wear were recruited for the study. Subjects were randomly fitted to either an apical-t...
