Determining the Relationship Between Regional Epithelial Thickness, Corneal Toricity, and Corneal Power in Normal Corneas
Regional epithelial thickness was unrelated to underlying corneal toricity and had minimal impact on corneal power in normal eyes. There was no evidence that normal epithelium significantly masks underlying normal stromal toricity, nor does the epithelium significantly contribute to corneal power under normal conditions. <b>[<i>J Refract Surg</i>. 2025;41(2):e91-e101.]</b>.
