Purpose: To compare central topography (CT) from IOLMaster 700 with predicate topographic (PT) maps from a Placido disk-dual Scheimpflug tomographer in detection of irregularities that would influence the decision-making for implanting premium intraocular lenses (IOLs) (toric, multifocal, or extended depth-of-focus).
Setting: Cullen Eye Institute, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas.
Design: Prospective comparative case series.
Article Synopsis
- The review highlights the advancements in corneal imaging technology, transitioning from basic topography to complex three-dimensional tomography, enabling detailed analysis of both the front and back surfaces of the cornea.
- Recent findings emphasize the importance of understanding corneal epithelial thickness and its implications for refractive surgery, including candidate screening and surgical planning.
- The evolution of imaging techniques, particularly through optical coherence tomography, enhances the safety and effectiveness of refractive and therapeutic eye surgeries.
