Effect of corneal light scatter on vision: a review of the literature [PDF]
, 2016 The cornea is the transparent connective tissue window at the front of the eye. The physiological role of the cornea is to conduct external light into the eye, focus it, together with the lens, onto the retina, and to provide rigidity to the entire ...

Central Corneal Thickness in Latinos
Investigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2003 To characterize central corneal thickness (CCT) in Latinos aged 40 or more years.A population-based cohort of Latinos from two census tracts in La Puente, California, underwent measurements of CCT and intraocular pressure (IOP). CCT was measured with an ultrasonic pachymeter, and IOP was measured by applanation tonometry.
