Abstract
Corneal morphological analysis has greatly improved in recent years, providing physicians with new and reliable parameters to study. Moreover, today corneal functional too is a routine analysis, thanks to biomechanical evaluation allowed by an ocular response analyzer (Reichert Ophthalmic Instrument, Depew, NY, USA). Corvis ST (OCULUS Optikgeräte GmbH, Wetzlar, Germany), that relies on the ultrahigh speed Scheimpflug camera, is a new device providing corneal deformation parameters measured ny scanning the cornea response to an air puff; it is an instrument able to measure intraocular pressure too. This device could open up a whole new prospective in screening, detecting and managing corneal diseases, intraocular pressure measurement and in evaluating surgical procedures involving the cornea. This paper provides a comprehensive explanation of Corvis ST measurement principles and parameters and a literature review of scientific studies.
