Experimental Evaluation of Ocular Rigidity and Pressure-Volume Relationship After Ex-Vivo Scleral Cross-Linking With Riboflavin and Ultraviolet A in Porcine Eyes
This study showed that stiffened scleras did not induce substantial change in ocular rigidity and significant IOP elevations. Studying the biomechanical ocular response of laboratory scleral crosslinking applications supports the development of next-generation crosslinking procedures that may constitute potential therapeutic options for severe ophthalmic diseases like pathologic myopia.
