Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the ability of a proprietary software screening tool to discriminate normal corneas (front surface of the eye) from previously diagnosed corneal conditions (diseases/surgeries/pathologies) and to determine the repeatabiltity and reproducibility of the Atlas II corneal topographer in normal human corneas.
Detailed Description
1. To establish reference values for SF, CIM, and TKM in subjects with normal corneas. 2. To establish reference values for SF, CIM, and TKM in subjects who underwent myopic laser vision correction. 3. To establish reference values for SF, CIM, and TKM in subjects who underwent hyperopic laser vision correction. 4. To establish reference values for SF, CIM, and TKM in subjects who were diagnosed to have keratoconus. 5. To establish reference values for SF, CIM, and TKM in subjects with history of orthokeratology. 6. To establish reference values for SF, CIM, and TKM in subjects with previously diagnosed corneal conditions (diseases/pathologies/surgeries) affecting the corneal surface that are not listed above. 7. To determine the repeatabiltity and reproducibility of the Atlas II corneal topographer in normal human corneas using true elevation data and axial curvature. 8. To determine the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the Pathfinder II Corneal Analysis software in discriminating normal corneas from previously diagnosed corneal conditions (diseases/pathologies/surgeries) affecting the corneal surface (Phase II).

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Patients seeking initial laser vision correction that were screened to be good candidates for the procedure.
- •No history of refractive or other ocular surgery.
- •No corneal pathologies.
- •Normal corneal topography.
- •Contact lens wearers should discontinue use at least 2 weeks for hard contacts, and 3 days for soft lenses prior to imaging.
- •Keratoconus
- •An irregular cornea determined by distorted keratometry mires, distortion of the retinoscopic, or ophthalmoscopic red reflex (or a combination of these)
- •At least one of the following biomicroscopic signs: Vogt's striae, Fleischer's ring of \>2 mm arc, or corneal scarring consistent with keratoconus.
- •Contact lens wearers should discontinue use preferably 1 day or at least half an hour prior to imaging.
- •Myopic Laser Vision Correction
Exclusion Criteria
- •Patients that underwent corneal transplantation or any ocular surgery for the following categories: normal, keratoconus, and orthokeratology)
- •Any active infection or inflammation of the cornea.
- •PI decides that subject is not suitable due to medical risk.
