The Impact of Intraocular Pressure Changes on Corneal Biomechanics in Primary Open-angle Glaucoma
Changes in IOP have an impact on corneal biomechanical parameters. Decreases in corneal stiffness and modulus were observed after IOP reduction. When the effect of high-level IOP was excluded, corneal biomechanics varied according to the type of glaucoma. The HTG corneas were softer than the OHT corneas, and the NTG corneas were even softer.
