Abstract
The results of this study showed that although repeated measurements of the CCT with Orbscan and Pentacam are strongly correlated, repeatability values of CCT measurements significantly decrease at more advanced grades of keratoconus. In all keratoconus grades, repeatability of CCT measurements was better with Pentacam than Orbscan. These findings indicate that corneal thickness readings have less validity in patients with advanced keratoconus.
