A prospective comparison of Scheimpflug-based anterior segment imaging systems in normal and abnormal corneas: Oculus Pentacam vs. Remidio Visionix VX650.

Purpose: Advancements in anterior segment imaging have significantly improved the precision of corneal diagnostics, aiding ocular conditions management. The study evaluated the agreement between two Scheimpflug devices-Pentacam and Remidio Visionix 650 (VX650)-in assessing corneal and anterior chamber parameters in patients with and without corneal abnormalities.

Materials And Methods: This prospective study at a tertiary eye care hospital measured pachymetry values (central corneal thickness, thinnest point), front corneal surface parameters (keratometry, curvature, astigmatism), back corneal surface parameters (elevation, curvature) and anterior chamber parameters (depth, volume, angle).
