Applications of epithelial thickness mapping in corneal refractive surgery
Saudi Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022 In this review, we discuss the applications of epithelial thickness mapping in corneal refractive surgery. The review describes that the epithelial thickness profile is nonuniform in the normal eye, being thinner superiorly than inferiorly and thinner temporally than nasally.

The Influence of Tomographic Corneal Characteristics on Epithelial Thickness Profile [PDF]
Cureus, 2020 Purpose To understand the influence of tomographic corneal characteristics on the epithelium of normal eyes. Methods We scanned a total of 98 eyes of 98 individuals using anterior segment tomography and a spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) epithelial mapping tool.

Scaling and maintenance of corneal thickness during aging. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Corneal thickness is tightly regulated by its boundary endothelial and epithelial layers. The regulated set-point of corneal thickness likely shows inter-individual variations, changes by age, and response to stress.

Changes in Corneal Epithelial Thickness Induced by Topical Antiglaucoma Medications [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2021 Corneal thickness measurement is important for assessing intraocular pressure in patients with glaucoma. This study investigated the changes in corneal epithelial thickness (CET) induced by antiglaucoma medications and explored the factors affecting CET measurement.

Comparison of corneal epithelial and stromal thickness distributions between eyes with keratoconus and healthy eyes with corneal astigmatism ≥ 2.0 D. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 To identify corneal epithelial- and stromal-thickness distribution patterns in keratoconus using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT).We analyzed SD-OCT findings in 20 confirmed cases of keratoconus (group 1) and in 20 healthy subjects ...

Corneal epithelial thickness as a diagnostic tool in ophthalmology – a case series
Klinika Oczna, 2023 Following the introduction of a commercially available SD-OCT system in 2017, corneal epithelial mapping was incorporated into ophthalmology, particularly refractive surgery, as a valuable, highly diagnostic tool.

Corneal thickness in Fuchs' dystrophy with and without epithelial oedema [PDF]
Eye, 1998 To investigate whether the occurrence of epithelial oedema in Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy is associated with a particular corneal thickness or the extent of central corneal guttae.Sixty-seven patients, aged 52-90 years, presenting in our clinic with Fuchs' dystrophy were divided on the basis of the presence or absence of epithelial oedema as ...
