Developing a Nationwide Registry to Track Longitudinal Clinical Outcomes of Corneal Surgery and Disease

Plain-language summary

The goal is to develop a nationwide registry to track longitudinal clinical outcomes of and store imaging data related to numerous corneal conditions. There are two main objectives including the establishment of the first nationwide corneal transplant registry in the United States to include information related to the donor tissue, recipient, surgical procedure, and long-term clinical outcomes. Ultimately, this prospective data collection will allow us to determine prognostic factors for successful corneal transplantation and create an algorithm to guide clinical practice based on real world outcomes. The second objective is to collect and create a database of historical, de-identified optical coherence topography (OCT) and corneal topography images to ultimately develop artificial intelligence (AI) based diagnostic and prognostic algorithms for corneal disease and surgery.
