Scheimpflug tomographic changes across the keratoconus spectrum based on the modified Rabinowitz-McDonnell classification
When keratoconus is classified using central keratometry, Scheimpflug tomography demonstrates a clear, stage-dependent pattern of corneal change. Curvature-related alterations precede measurable thinning, highlighting that curvature-based classification remains clinically relevant and that tomographic parameters can enhance disease characterization across the keratoconus spectrum.
