Anterior segment assessment in atrial fibrillation and congestive heart failure: insights from a regional cohort

The minor variation observed in the KI may reflect subtle corneal surface irregularities potentially associated with systemic cardiovascular pathology, highlighting the need for larger, longitudinal studies to clarify these findings.
