摘要
This paper presents a numerical study on the transport of ions and ionic solution in human corneas and their influences on the corneal hydration. The transport equations for ions and ionic solution within the cornea are derived based on transport processes in electrolytic solutions, whereas the transport across epithelial and endothelial membranes is described by using phenomenological equations derived on the thermodynamics of irreversible processes. Numerical examples are given for a typical human cornea from which some important features are highlighted.
