Polarimetric interferometry helps detect preclinical keratoconus changes

An innovative imaging device that uses polarimetric interferometry to assess the orientation of collagen fibers within the corneal stroma may help detect some of the morphological changes that occur in the preclinical stages of keratoconus, allowing for early diagnosis and proactive treatment.
In addition, it may help optimize the visual results of corneal transplantation by suggesting the optimum alignment of stromal fibrils between the donor graft and the recipient bed.
Lumaxis (Phronema) is the only currently available medical device that images the birefringence properties of the cornea by
