PURPOSE: To conduct Fourier analysis on regular and irregular astigmatism of the anterior and posterior corneal surfaces using anterior segment optical coherence tomography in patients with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) DESIGN: Observational case series.
METHODS: This study included 75 eyes of 43 FECD patients and 34 eyes of 34 healthy subjects in Osaka University Hospital. Corneal dioptric data from the central 6-mm zone of the anterior and posterior corneal surface were expanded into spherical, regular astigmatism, asymmetry, and higher-order irregularity components using Fourier analysis. We analyzed the association between each component and modified Krachmer grade.
RESULTS: There were significant differences in regular astigmatism, asymmetry, and higher-order irregularity components of the anterior corneal surface, and spherical, regular astigmatism, asymmetry, and higher-order irregularity components of the posterior corneal surface among modified Krachmer grades (P = .036, <.001, <.001, <.001, <.001, <.001, and <.001, respectively). Asymmetry component of the anterior and posterior corneal surfaces gradually increased with FECD progression. Higher-order irregularity components of the anterior and posterior corneal surfaces drastically increased in Grade 6. Many eyes had an axis of 0°-180° for the asymmetry component of the anterior surface and 180°-360° for that of the posterior surface.
CONCLUSION: Patients with severe FECD had a larger amount of asymmetry and higher-order irregularity components of the anterior and posterior corneal surfaces. Patients with FECD up to Grade 5 were characterized by anterior and posterior flattening in the inferior cornea, and those with Grade 6 showed irregularity in the anterior and posterior corneal surfaces.
