Dynamic corneal imaging induced a reproducible and reversible change in corneal topography corresponding to the different indentation depths. The results indicate that several clinical parameters are correlated with corneal elastic behavior in vivo and that the technology could increase the predictability of refractive corneal surgery and help in the early diagnosis of corneal diseases and with newly developed therapies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
