The Combined Utilization of Epithelial Thickness and Tomographic Parameters in Keratoconus Detection
Purpose: To evaluate the performance of the anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS‐OCT) and Scheimpflug–Placido tomographic (SPT) indices in differentiating suspect keratoconus (SKC) from normal (N). Methods: In this cross‐sectional study, one eye of each patient was scanned on AS‐OCT and SPT.
