Corneal collagen cross-linking for treating keratoconus. [PDF]
, 2015 BACKGROUND: Keratoconus is a condition of the eye that affects approximately 1 in 2000 people. The disease leads to a gradual increase in corneal curvature and decrease in visual acuity with consequent impact on quality of life.

The relationship between central corneal thickness and corneal curvature in adult Nigerians
African Vision and Eye Health, 2011 Purpose: The aim of this study was to provide average values for central corneal thickness (CCT) and corneal curvature (CC) and also to determine a regression model for the relationship between CCT and CC in adult Nigerians without glaucoma. Methods: A
