A clinical method for estimating the modulus of elasticity of the human cornea in vivo.
BACKGROUND:To develop a method, using current clinical instrumentation, to estimate the Young's modulus of the human cornea in vivo. METHODS:Central corneal curvature (CCC), central corneal thickness(CCT), intraocular pressure (IOP) was measured with the Goldmann tonometer (IOPG) and the Pascal...
