“…21,22 Therefore, an aconic reference surface, which is aspheric and toric, fits closer to the corneal surface and provides an approximation of the overall corneal shape. The scanning-slit topographer software generates an aconic surface of reference from the elevation data of the anterior and posterior corneal surfaces and provides information about the mean apical curvature, asphericity, and toricity values that a spherical reference surface cannot provide ( Figure 2).…”
