PURPOSE: To investigate corneal densitometry and correlations with corneal morphological parameters in patients with bilateral keratoconus (KC) with unilateral Vogt's striae.
METHODS: This prospective contralateral study enrolled 112 patients (224 eyes) with evident KC characteristics (corneal topography with asymmetric bow-tie pattern, inferior steepening), and at least one KC sign (conical protrusion of the cornea at the apex, corneal stromal thinning, Fleischer ring, Vogt's striae) on slit-lamp examination. Corneal densitometry and morphological parameters were measured using Pentacam HR.
RESULTS: The mean age was 23.93 ± 6.81 years. Fifty-two (23.22%), 111 (49.55%), and 61 (27.23%) eyes were in mild, moderate, and severe groups, respectively. Corneal densitometry values of the anterior 0-2 mm and 2-6 mm, intermediate 0-2 mm and 2-6 mm, posterior 2-6 mm, and total cornea 2-6 mm were significantly higher in eyes with Vogt's striae (P < 0.05), whereas those of the anterior 6-10 mm, posterior 0-2 mm, and total cornea 6-10 mm were significantly lower in eyes with Vogt's striae (P < 0.05). Anterior 0-2 mm and total cornea 2-6 mm corneal densitometry values were positively correlated with anterior K1 (A-K1), K2 (A-K2), Km (A-Km), Kmax (A-Kmax), anterior corneal elevation, and posterior corneal elevation (P < 0.05), and negatively correlated with central corneal thickness and thinnest corneal thickness in eyes with Vogt's striae (P < 0.05). A-K2, A-Km, and A-Kmax were significantly correlated with the densitometry values of the anterior 0-2 mm and intermediate 0-2 mm in eyes without Vogt's striae (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Vogt's striae mainly occur on the anterior and intermediate layers during KC progression.
