Who can join

Adults 10 to 60, any sex, with Keratoconus or Keratoconus, Unspecified, Bilateral. Patients with the condition only — healthy volunteers not accepted.

Sponsor's own description

Evaluation of tomographic (Pentacam) parameters and genetic parameters of Visual System Homeobox 1 (VSX1), Superoxide Dismutase (SOD1), Tissue Inhibitors of Metalloproteinases (TIMP3) genes of keratoconus patients diagnosed by clinical exam and topographic pattern. Basically we are screening patients that don't have keratoconus that those have keratoconus. The pentacam index of corneal curvature, thinnest point, corneal high order aberrations, posterior and anterior elevation, corneal densitometry, corneal volume were investigated. To analyze the genes, we took corneal epithelium samples of patients submitted to cross linking compared to (PRK) Photo Refractive Keratectomy ones. Also will be evaluated the genes of peripheral blood.
