Anatomical characterization of central, apical and minimal corneal thickness.

Aim: To anatomically locate the points of minimum corneal thickness and central corneal thickness (pupil center) in relation to the corneal apex.

Methods: Observational, cross-sectional study, 299 healthy volunteers. Thickness at the corneal apex (AT), minimum corneal thickness (MT) and corneal thickness at the pupil center (PT) were determined using the pentacam.
