Abstract

Purpose. To analyse keratopographic and biomechanical corneal indicators with the diagnostic results assessment of the influence on the treatment tactics of myopic refraction patient. Materials and methods. Keratotopographic and biomechanical parameters of the cornea in a patient with mild myopia were evaluated. Results. The Belin/Ambrosio (Enchanced Ectasia Display) - BAD keratoconus screening program was used on Pentacam HR, which did not reveal corneal pathology. According to the results of CBI (Corvis biomechanical index) on Corvis ST (OD - 0.61, OS - 0.48), that was indicating poor corneal biomechanical properties and a high risk of keratectasia development. Conclusion. Ophthalmic examination, using The Corvis ST (Oculus, Germany) biomechanical measurements, makes possible to reveal with greater sensitivity subclinical signs of a keratectatic process at the pre-clinical stage of development. Key words: keratotopography, corneal biomechanics, keratoconus.
