Study Summary

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) machines are non-contact instruments that can measure the depth of scars and other causes of cloudiness in the front of the cornea. The purpose of this study is to determine whether OCT-guided settings for the lasers used for removal of corneal scars and other partial-thickness corneal defects result in improved vision in patients receiving these procedures.

Primary Outcome

The primary goal of the trial is to determine the efficacy of the OCT-guided PTK treatment of corneal opacities. During the course of the trial, we will compare the predictive accuracy of the original OCT-guided PTK planning system to the OCT topography-guided system. BSCVA will be measured in typical Snellen acuity notation as 20/xx (feet)
