Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
screening and diagnosis ability
Time Frame: one year
Calculate the cut-off values, sensitivity and specificity of parameters measured by Pentacam, Corvis ST and Scansys in diagnosing keratoconus. Use Receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC) to analyze the optimal parameters to distinguish between the three groups.
