Abstract:Background: To evaluate the corneal biomechanics of stable keratoconus suspects (Stable-KCS) at 1-year follow-up and compare them with those of subclinical keratoconus (SKC). Methods: This prospective case-control study included the eyes of 144 patients. Biomechanical and tomographic parameters were recorded (Corvis ST and Pentacam). Patients without clinical signs of keratoconus in both eyes but suspicious tomography findings were included in the Stable-KCS group (n = 72). Longitudinal follow-up was used to e… Show more
