Intrasession and intersession repeatability of the Pentacam system on posterior corneal assessment in the normal human eye

Pentacam provided good performance in assessing the posterior cornea. To improve the intersession repeatability, it is suggested that 3 consecutive readings, rather than 1 image, be taken to generate an average BFS for analysis. When comparing the posterior corneal elevation between sessions, an average BFS generated from the first visit should be used for elevation calculation.
