VILAMOURA, Portugal — A high-resolution aberrometer prototype using astrophysics technology revealed unprecedented micro alterations in the wavefront phase of keratoconus eyes, which are dependent on the disease stage.
At the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons winter meeting, Gonzalo Velarde-Rodriguez, MD, presented the results of a study in which this high-resolution (8.6 µm) prototype aberrometer, called T-eyede (Wooptix), was used in 43 healthy eyes and 43 eyes with keratoconus at various stages. Corneal aberration values were provided by Pentacam tomography
