Pentacam is better . It is good for detection of mild keratoconus as well as for follow up for progression of keratoconus

PENTACAM is better. Pls retain reports, it will help to see progression when we repeat scan at a later date. In mild cases of keratoconus, treatment is more only if there is progression.
