Comparison of Oculus Pentacam and Stratus Optical Coherence Tomography for Measurement of Central Corneal Thickness

Abstract

Corneal thickness measurements differ depending on the device used. Corneal thicknesses that have been calculated with Pentacam were lower than the values obtained with Stratus OCT. Both devices used for CCT measurement are easily applied, noninvasive, and effective. However, the devices are not interchangeable. Stratus OCT is not optimal for CCT measurement because of the important limitations of using manual measurements, but it can be used if other measurement devices designed for the purpose are not available.
