Evaluation of Corneal Epithelial Thickness Mapping

September 9, 2014 updated by: Optovue
Optovue has developed a new feature for mapping corneal epithelial thickness. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the accuracy and repeatability of the epithelial thickness measurement. Consented subjects will undergo a series of cornea measurements using optical coherence tomography (OCT) that will be used for analysis.
