A 20-year-old male patient with asymmetric keratoconus presented with BCVA 20/20 in OD and
20/15 in OS. The data in OS show a relatively normal topography pattern, while those in OD reveal
mild keratoconus (Figure

The Ambrósio relational thickness maximum (ARTmax)

the clinical diagnosis. This is an example of a very mild forme fruste keratoconus in OS with still
relatively normal curvature topography and moderate tomographic changes [10,11,12,13].
