PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to determine the detection of keratoconus using corneal biomechanical parameters only, a corneal tomographic parameter only, and a parameter that combines corneal biomechanical and tomographic indices.
METHODS: The discriminatory power of the Pentacam Random Forest Index (PRFI), Belin/Ambrósio Enhanced Ectasia Display (BAD-D) index, Corvis Biomechanical Index (CBI), and Tomographic and Biomechanical Index (TBI) to differentiate between normal eyes (n = 84), eyes with very asymmetric corneal ectasia (VAE-E, n = 21), and the fellow eyes without apparent ectasia based on normal tomography (VAE-NT, n = 21) was assessed. Statistical analyses were completed with R software using t -tests, Wilcoxon rank sum tests, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. The DeLong test was used to compare the area under the ROC curve (AUROC).
RESULTS: The TBI and PRFI had the highest AUROC when distinguishing between normal and VAE-E corneas (AUROC = 1.00, 95% CI = 1.00-1.00); however, they were not statistically superior to the CBI (AUROC = 0.97, P = 0.27) or BAD-D (AUROC = 1.00, P = 0.34). The TBI (AUROC = 0.92, 95% CI = 0.86-0.98) was superior to CBI (AUROC = 0.78, P = 0.02) and BAD-D (AUROC = 0.81, P = 0.02) when distinguishing between healthy and VAE-NT corneas. At a threshold of 0.72, the TBI had 99% sensitivity, 67% specificity, and 92% accuracy in distinguishing normal and VAE-NT corneas.
CONCLUSIONS: The TBI is a useful parameter for the screening of subclinical and frank keratoconus in tomographically normal eyes.
