Implication

Cross-sectional study assesses biomechanical factors in glaucoma severity, indicating their use for diagnosis.

Key Points

  • Increased corneal stiffness in patients with primary open angle glaucoma indicates more severe damage.
  • First applanation time and stress strain index show significant differences among normal, HTG, and NTG groups.
  • Multivariable analysis reveals vital biomechanical measurements in differentiating glaucoma types.
  • Receiver operating characteristic analysis supports HC deflection as a potential diagnostic tool for glaucoma.
