Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate optometrist and ophthalmologist approach in KCN diagnosis.Method: A questionnaire was introduced randomly to Iranian ophthalmologist and optometrist in two national and international congresses. The questionnaire consisted of 16 questions that some of them has related to KCN early diagnosis and lens fitting.Results: Cronbach’s Alpha was 0.594 in ophthalmologists and 0.603 among optometrist groups. 36.2% of optometrists and 18% of ophthalmologists believed that retinoscopic reflex is very important in KCN diagnosis. BIO-MICROSCOPY was believed to be important in 53.7% of optometrists and 48.7% of ophthalmologists. CORNEAL IMAGING was important in early diagnosis of KCN 55.8% of optometrists and 57.7% of ophthalmologists.Conclusion: Most of optometrists believed that RETINOSCOPY is most important in KCN diagnosis. Both groups believed that BIO-MICROSCOPY and CORNEAL IMAGING are very important in KCN diagnosis. Educational courses should be considered for CONTACT LENS fitting, both for optometrists and ophthalmologists. Regular congresses and symposiums may be recommended.
