Biomechanical diagnosis of keratoconus: evaluation of the keratoconus match index and the keratoconus match probability [PDF]
Acta Ophthalmologica, 2013 Abstract.Purpose: To evaluate the diagnostic capacity of the Ocular Response Analyser’s keratoconus match index (KMI) and keratoconus match probability (KMP) classification in a sample of keratoconus (KC) patients.Methods: Keratoconus match index and KMP from 114 KC eyes, randomly selected from 114 patients with bilateral keratoconus (KCG), were ...

Tissue Antigens, 1983
HLA‐A and ‐B antigens were determined in 64 Caucasoid patients with keratoconus. A highly significant increase in the frequency of HLA‐B5 was found among the patients. Thus keratoconus is the third eye disease after recurrent herpetic keratitis and Behcet's disease showing an association with HLA‐B5.

Contact Lens and Anterior Eye, 2010
Keratoconus is the most common primary ectasia. It usually occurs in the second decade of life and affects both genders and all ethnicities. The estimated prevalence in the general population is 54 per 100,000. Ocular signs and symptoms vary depending on disease severity. Early forms normally go unnoticed unless corneal topography is performed. Disease

Keratoconus is a progressive, noninflammatory, nonvascular axial corneal ectasia, with unclear etiology and pathogenesis. It has a prevalence of 50-230 per 100,000 and is a bilateral disorder in up to 90% of cases. The onset of keratoconus is usually at puberty and progresses over 10-20 years producing an irregular myopic astigmatism.

Cornea, 1988
Keratoconus is a bilateral disorder of corneal shape which may be sporadic or genetically determined. Early corneal thinning suggests that a functional loss of structural elements is a primary event in the disease. Tensile strength of the cornea is reduced and is expressed by signs of rupture and scarring in Bowman's layer, scarring in the substantia ...

Keratoconus is a bilateral, non-inflammatory corneal ectasia characterized by progressive conical thinning and protrusion of the cornea. Its etiology has long been believed to be multifactorial, with environmental, behavioral, and genetic factors all contributing to the disease process.

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1959
For some time ophthalmologists have recognized that keratoplasty corrects keratoconus in a large percentage of cases. There is, however, some difference of opinion as to the optimal size of the grafts. Castroviejo 1 and others have suggested a large graft which replaces the entire conus, because the high corneal curvature remaining after a smaller ...
