dc.description.abstractThis research aimed to assess the association between keratoconus (KC) progression and systemic inflammation markers. Additionally, we aimed to identify which specific systemic inflammation markers have a predictive effect on the progression of KC. 111 patients, including 69 with stable KC, and 42 with progressive KC were diagnosed and subsequently followed up between 2020-2023 at the Ophthalmology Clinics. This retrospective study also included 52 gender and age-matched healthy individuals who underwent examination at the Ophthalmology department. From the hemogram parameters, neutrophils, lymphocytes, platelets, and monocytes levels were used to calculate the systemic inflammation markers. When the KC patients and the healthy control group were related, significant differences were found in keratometry values (K1, K2, Kmax), astigmatism, central cornea thickness (CCT), and Baiocchi Calossi Versaci (BCV) values. No significant difference was detected when hemogram parameters except for neutrophils and platelets were compared in all groups (p>0.05). However, statistically significant differences were detected among the groups in the inflammatory values (p
