… The aim of this study was to characterize the mean topographic shape of the limbus of a
normal human eye and determine whether it depends on age or refractive power. …

… Clinically, the limbus appears elliptical in shape with the long axis oriented horizontally. …
external human eye show ing the eliptical appearance of the external limbus, the broader limbal …

… a more robust estimation of the limbus position. Recently, an asymmetric mean shape of
the human limbus was introduced by Consejo who fitted the human limbus shape to a second-…

… One such difference is that unlike the uniform and flat corneal epithelial profile, the human
limbus features palisades of Vogt, a series of fibrovascular ridges that form the limbal crypts …

… pronounced from the center of the cornea toward the limbus along the superiorinferior axis.
… limbus, predicted from the sharp change of curvature in the surface of the eye at the limbus, …

… position of the limbus was detected by locating the turning point of the raw elevation 2 nd
derivative at each meridian. This limbal position is referred to as the detected limbus position in …

… pupil shape, and (in the cases where the limbus was digitized) the position of the pupil relative
to the limbus. … This limbus shape was then stored, and the position of the limbus in other …

… located 1.5-mm extending centripetally from the scleral spur in every limbal quadrant, the
mean LETs in the four quadrants were found to be significantly less than the value observed in …

… Asymmetry in limbal shape between nasal and temporal side was observed. … -scleral
limbus surface or, in short, an anterior limbus surface (ALS). Histologically, the anterior limbus is …

… the limbal width, which means that the horizontal visible iris diameter is an underestimate of
the true corneo‐limbal diameter. This review concludes that the width of the limbus has been …
