Abstract

This study focuses on exploring the influence of corneal biomechanical parameters on clinical treatment outcomes. While current research has simplified corneal structural modeling to enhance treatment effects, there is often a tendency to overlook the specific impact of corneal structure on treatment efficacy. The primary objective of this research is to underscore the importance of strengthening the study of corneal biomechanical parameters, particularly the intricate relationship between corneal structure and biomechanical properties, in order to provide more precise guidance for personalized treatment strategies. Beginning with an analysis of corneal biomechanical parameters and specific physical models of the cornea, this paper delves into the measurement methods of representative clinical biomechanical characteristics, such as tensile stress-strain tests, enzymatic digestion, intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements, and Optical Coherence Elastography (OCE). This study holds significant implications for enhancing corneal treatment outcomes and delivering improved eye health services. By advancing our understanding of corneal biomechanics, we can further optimize treatment approaches and contribute to the advancement of personalized ophthalmic care, ultimately benefiting patients and promoting overall eye health.
