Effects of Altered Corneal Stiffness on Native and Postoperative LASIK Corneal Biomechanical Behavior: A Whole-eye Finite Element Analysis
Journal of Refractive Surgery, 10/19/09

Roy AS et al. – Differences in the corneoscleral stiffness relationship affect simulated refractive outcomes after LASIK and may be a source of individual variation in refractive surgery outcomes. A whole–eye model allowing limbal motion illustrates a stiffness–dependent biomechanical balance between central corneal flattening and pre–ectatic weakening of the corneal apex not demonstrated in previous computational models and provides insight into under– and overcorrection in myopic LASIK and the previously unexplained phenomenon of corneal flattening after therapeutic collagen cross–linking for keratoconus.
