Higher magnification lenses versus conventional lenses for evaluation of diabetic neuropathy by corneal in vivo confocal microscopy

Abstract: We tested agreement for small fibre morphology using corneal in vivo confocal microscopy between the recently available higher-magnification 300μm2 and the conventional 400μm2 field-of-view lenses. We found insignificant bias for corneal nerve fibre length indicating that either lens could reasonably be applied to research and clinical screening for diabetic neuropathy. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
