Diagnosis of Keratoconus Disease and After Cross-Linking 3D Simulation of the Cornea Project
What is Keratoconus Disease?
• Progressive collagen tissue disease characterized by thinning of the corneal tissue and corneal tapering of the eye.
• The most important symptoms of keratoconus disease, constantly changing glasses numbers, increasing myopia and astigmatism, despite the clear vision of glasses, allergy, itching and rubbing.
• Genetic and environmental factors such as scratching and rubbing traumas are among the causes of the disease. The sun is intense in countries such as Turkey and dust is seen more often. It is a frequent disease especially in countries with hot, dust and allergens
• Keratoconus disease is thought contrary to a widespread disease in Turkey appears.
AKGUN KnVision System Features:
The Project of “Diagnosis of Keratoconus Disease and After Cross-Linking 3D Simulation of the Cornea”is the product of a scientific study carried out within the framework of university-industry cooperation.
How AKGUN KnVision System Works?
1. This System determines whether keratoconus disease exists and presents it to specialist physicians. In addition, because of the intelligent algorithms developed, the system determines the stage of the disease and presents it to the doctors.
2. With AKGUN KnVision, by going one-step further, the post-operative state of the cornea can be estimated before cross-linking is performed. Thus, it can be predicted whether the selected treatment method is suitable for the cornea to be applied and can help to choose the correct treatment method.
3. After the cross-linking treatment, the change in the cornea before and after the operation can be easily monitored with AKGUN KnVision.
AKGUN KnVision System, which aims the decision of the specialist in the diagnosis and treatment process of the eye disease and early and accurate diagnosis, has a wide range of decision support from the diagnosis of the disease and the suitability of the case to the operation of the cornea with the help of the 3-D visualization and mathematical methods.
With the AKGÜN KnVision System,
- With the “Diagnosis of Keratoconus Disease and After Cross-Linking 3D Simulation of the Cornea” method is a new classification approach has been developed for statistical diagnosis of keratoconus diseases.
- The diagnosis of the disease is carried out by an intelligent system and three-dimensional simulation of the change in the cornea is provided by using image-forming techniques before and after the cross-linking treatment.
- The R & D product AKGUN KnVision, which provides the possibility of transferring the knowledge in universities to products and transferring them to industry, accelerates the treatment processes of keratoconus disease and increases service efficiency and quality.
