Effect of biomechanical properties on myopia: a study of new corneal biomechanical parameters

Abstract Background To assess the corneal stress-strain index (SSI), which is a marker for material stiffness and corneal biomechanical parameters, in myopic eyes. Methods A total of 1054 myopic patients were included in this study. Corneal visualisation Scheimpflug technology was used to measure th...
