The thick and thin of the central corneal thickness in glaucoma [PDF]
Eye, 2018 Central corneal thickness (CCT) is an important parameter in the assessment of any potential glaucoma patient. While it affects prognosis in ocular hypertension, its value in patients diagnosed with glaucoma is less certain. There are several biological factors and genetic components that may influence glaucoma progression, which have been associated ...
