Logistic regression was done to find new indices with higher area under receiver operating characteristic curves using the currently available ones.Results: The Corneal Assessment Index from Relational thickness and other OCULUS Values 9 (CAIRO 9) index, deduced from the Ambrosio relational thickness-maximum and the anterior elevation at thinnest point from 9 mm best-fit sphere, and the CAIRO 8, deduced from Ambrosio relational thickness-maximum and anterior elevation at thinnest point from 8 mm best-fit sphere, have a very high area under receiver operating characteristic curves for KC detection (0.997 and 0.995, respectively).Conclusion: New corneal assessment index is deduced with better sensitivity and specificity for KC detection.
