What is it about?

Comparison between measurements by Casia SS-1000, Pentacam HR, and Tomey TMS-5. We analysed the repeatability of the corneal height and pachymetry maps for normal eyes. Additionally we calculate the precision and mean values for our cohort and present the systematic differences between the devices.

Why is it important?

In the supplementary material, there are full uncertainty maps representing the variations in corneal shape that can be expected in normal eyes with and with-out taking into consideration the effect of misalignment between subsequent measurements. The uncertainty (precision) can be used for weighted surface fitting onto the cornea.
