View on ClinicalTrials.gov →
Summary
The pathogenesis of keratoconus remains unclear, and its natural course has yet to be fully understood. For non-progressive patients and post-surgical cases, clinical management primarily involves follow-up observation, with significant challenges in visual rehabilitation. This study aims to establish a prospective keratoconus cohort to identify risk factors, natural progression, and the efficacy of interventions. Additionally, it seeks to explore changes in ocular biometric parameters and other pathophysiological characteristics in keratoconus patients, investigate the relationship between keratoconus and systemic diseases or comorbidities, and assess refractive interventions and visual rehabilitation strategies for keratoconus patients.
