Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate corneal and lens properties in patients with systemic sclerosis.
  • Conducted densitometric analysis of corneal and lens parameters
  • Compared anterior segment and lens properties in systemic sclerosis patients
  • Assessed corneal densitometry in the central optical zone
  • Reduced corneal densitometry indicates subtle stromal remodelling
  • Anterior segment and lens parameters appear unaffected
  • Findings suggest chronic fibrotic changes related to long-standing systemic sclerosis

Abstract

Although anterior segment and lens parameters appeared unaffected, reduced corneal densitometry in the central optical zone suggests subtle stromal remodelling in patients with long-standing SSc. These microstructural changes may reflect chronic fibrotic remodelling and warrant further investigation.
