Astigmatism-type-specific impact of peripheral corneal thickness on anterior keratometric profile changes after temporal clear corneal incision cataract surgery [PDF]
Scientific ReportsPostoperative astigmatism remains a concern after temporal clear corneal incision (TCCI) cataract surgery, especially in eyes with preexisting corneal astigmatism. This study investigated whether peripheral-to-central corneal thickness ratios can predict
