Ultraound Biomicrocopic Examination of Acute Hydrop in Patient With Keratoconu

Purpoe To invetigate the poible factor involved in the development of acute hydrop in patient with keratoconu. Deign Propective interventional cae erie. Method Thirteen conecutive keratoconic eye of 13 patient with acute hydrop were examined by ultraound biomicrocopy (UBM).

Concluion Formation of intratromal cleft may be an important factor in the development of acute hydrop in keratoconic eye.
