Study Summary
Keratoconus (KC) is a corneal disease which will in many cases ultimately require corneal transplantation to maintain vision. Early detection, which is not possible with current technology, would allow early treatment and prevent severe damage to KC corneas inadvertently operated upon for correction of vision. The investigators' aim is to combine measurements of different properties of the cornea to develop means for early detection of KC.
Primary Outcome
The undamped vibrational frequency and damping time-constant for the anterior and posterior corneal surfaces and for Bowman's membrane will be measured. The elastic modulus will be calculated form the change in corneal thickness resulting from known radiation force.
Interventions
- PROCEDURE Artemis Ultrasound Exam
- PROCEDURE Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) Exam
