Quantitative evaluation of videokeratographic data may help to diagnose PMCD and to distinguish PMCD from other ectatic corneal diseases. Contact lenses with a special back surface design can improve visual acuity and lens tolerance.

Contact lens fitting after LASIK is a safe and reliable procedure for improving visual acuity and reducing complications, such as ghost images or irregular corneal surface. Depending on the eccentricity and therefore on the preoperative refraction, contact lenses with a special back surface design can minimize problems in contact lens fitting and can improve tolerance and visual results.
