Observational study reveals microstructural influence of pterygium on corneal distortion, indicating its clinical relevance.
SPP length, a subepithelial microstructural parameter visualized by AS SS-OCT, independently correlates with anterior horizontal tilt after adjustment for HIL. This finding suggests that SPP length serves as a microstructural indicator of horizontal mechanical corneal distortion in eyes with pterygium.
