Overview

Analysis shows corneal hysteresis and resistance affect glaucoma development in 116 patients, indicating their predictive value.

Key Points

  • Progression of glaucoma is linked negatively to corneal hysteresis and corneal resistance factor, suggesting their relevance for treatment.
  • Negative correlation coefficients for corneal hysteresis (r = -0.45) and corneal resistance factor (r = -0.42) highlight their role.
  • Observational analysis of 116 primary open-angle glaucoma patients used various tonometry methods to assess intraocular pressure.
  • These findings emphasize the importance of corneal biomechanics in predicting glaucoma progression and enhancing clinical management.
