PURPOSE: The prevalence of keratoconus in the general population is reported to be up to 1 of 84. Over the past 2 decades, diagnosis and management evolved rapidly, but keratoconus screening in clinical practice is still challenging and asks for impr...
Detecting clinical keratoconus (KCN) poses a challenging and time-consuming task. During the diagnostic process, ophthalmologists are required to review demographic and clinical ophthalmic examinations in order to make an accurate diagnosis. This stu...

BACKGROUND: Keratoconus remains difficult to diagnose, especially in the early stages. It is a progressive disorder of the cornea that starts at a young age. Diagnosis is based on clinical examination and corneal imaging; though in the early stages, ...

INTRODUCTION: Rigid gas permeable contact lenses (RGP) are the most efficient means of providing optimal vision in keratoconus. RGP fitting can be challenging and time-consuming for ophthalmologists and patients. Deep learning predictive models could...

PURPOSE: This review was designed to compare different corneal imaging modalities using artificial intelligence (AI) for the diagnosis of keratoconus (KCN), subclinical KCN (SKCN), and forme fruste KCN (FFKCN).
PURPOSE: We aimed to investigate the usefulness of Zernike coefficients (ZCs) for distinguishing subclinical keratoconus (KC) from normal corneas and to evaluate the goodness of detection of the entire corneal topography and tomography characteristic...
Keratoconus is the corneal disease with the highest reported incidence of 1:2000. The treatment's level of success highly depends on how early it was started. Subsequently, a fast and highly capable diagnostic tool is crucial. While there are many co...
Ophthalmology is a highly technical specialty, especially in the area of diagnostic equipment. While the field is innovative, the access to cutting-edge technology is limited with reference to the global population. A significant way to improve overa...

Keratoconus is a noninflammatory disease characterized by thinning and bulging of the cornea, generally appearing during adolescence and slowly progressing, causing vision impairment. However, the detection of keratoconus remains difficult in the ear...

Keratoconus is one of the most severe corneal diseases, which is difficult to detect at the early stage (i.e., sub-clinical keratoconus) and possibly results in vision loss. In this paper, we propose a novel end-to-end deep learning approach, called ...
