Eligibility Criteria
100 patients + 2-5 members of family.
You may qualify if:
- Case :
- patient carrier of keratoconus
- more than 7 years
- patient who didn't expressed opposition as for computerization and use of data concerning him
- Family of case
- to have a first degree family member (father, mother, brother, sister, child) carrier of keratoconus
- more than 7 years
- patient who didn't expressed opposition as for computerization and use of data concerning him
You may not qualify if:
- ocular pathology or antecedent of modification of cornea (surgery, traumatism, ocular hypertension, keratitis) which could interfere with topographical analysis
- wearing of rigid contact lens for 15 days before exams, or flexible lens for 5 days before exams
