A comparative study of central corneal thickness using an ultrasonic pachymeter and a noncontact specular microscope in adult patients coming to the ophthalmology outpatient department in a tertiary care hospital in Western India

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate and compare the accuracy of measuring central corneal thickness (CCT) using an ultrasonic pachymeter and a noncontact specular microscope and whether they can be used interchangeably in adult patients with healthy cornea. Methodology: A comparative and observational study was...
