Background In recent years, increasing interest has arisen in the application of data from
corneal biomechanics in many areas of ophthalmology, particularly to assist in the detection …

RA-related corneal complications are associated with a decreased quality of life and poor
ocular and systemic prognosis. Prompt recognition and a multidisciplinary approach …

Purpose To describe the distribution of corneal hysteresis (CH) in a large cohort and explore
its associated factors and possible clinical applications. Design Cross-sectional study within …

Objectives: To evaluate corneal densitometry and anterior segment parameters of
