摘要
Now that is possible to measure the biomechanical parameters of the cornea in vivo, scientific and clinical interest has increased in changes in these parameters in glaucoma. These parameters may act as biomarkers for early diagnosis, but also serve to emphasize the increased vulnerability to intraocular pressure, reduced blood flow or changing ocular perfusion pressure. Measuring and interpreting these parameters may help in achieving better and individually tailored glaucoma management.
