Pentacam and Corvis ST findings in myopic Chinese patients with different corneal diameters in Singapore
Corneal diameter influences both Pentacam and Corvis ST parameters, with smaller corneal diameters having a higher BAD-D and a lower ARTmax and ARTh. In addition, this is the first study to report a correlation between posterior surface corneal power and corneal diameter. As refractive surgery evaluation relies on these parameters, taking corneal diameter into account would improve both sensitivity and specificity in pre-refractive surgery screening for ectasia/keratoconus.
