Estimates dimensional changes in corneal sections during bending, suggesting implications for surgical precision.
A rationale is presented to estimate the dimensional changes in a carved or reoriented corneal section as it is bent so that its stromal face will conform to the corneal bed to which it will be affixed. The formulations are predicated upon assumptions of convenience with self‐compensatory effects. A series of illustrated formulas demonstrate these changes so that the anterior, posterior or equivalent powers may be compared before and after bending.
