OBJECTIVE To evaluate the factors affecting corneal deformation amplitude (DA) measured using Corvis ST in eyes with open-angle glaucoma. METHODS This prospective, longitudinal study included 48 eyes with open-angle glaucoma who required additional intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering drops. All eyes underwent a complete eye examination at baseline, including a Corvis ST, which was repeated 4-8 weeks after the change in therapy. Factors affecting the corneal biomechanics, namely the DA, were determined using mixed effect models. RESULTS The mean age of the cohort was 65.0 ± 7.9 years. The mean IOP reduced from 23.4 ± 5.4 mmHg to 17.9 ± 5 mmHg after the change in glaucoma treatment ( P < 0.001). The DA increased from 0.89 ± 0.16 mm to 1.00 ± 0.13 mm after IOP reduction ( P < 0.001). On mixed effect model analysis, IOP (-0.02 ± 0.001, P < 0.001) and corneal pachymetry (-0.0003 ± 0.0001, P = 0.02) affected the change in the DA. CONCLUSIONS IOP and corneal pachymetry affect the DA and must be accounted for when using Corvis ST to evaluate corneal biomechanics in glaucoma.

D003315 Cornea The transparent anterior portion of the fibrous coat of the eye consisting of five layers: stratified squamous CORNEAL EPITHELIUM; BOWMAN MEMBRANE; CORNEAL STROMA; DESCEMET MEMBRANE; and mesenchymal CORNEAL ENDOTHELIUM. It serves as the first refracting medium of the eye. It is structurally continuous with the SCLERA, avascular, receiving its nourishment by permeation through spaces between the lamellae, and is innervated by the ophthalmic division of the TRIGEMINAL NERVE via the ciliary nerves and those of the surrounding conjunctiva which together form plexuses.

D005901 Glaucoma An ocular disease, occurring in many forms, having as its primary characteristics an unstable or a sustained increase in the intraocular pressure which the eye cannot withstand without damage to its structure or impairment of its function. The consequences of the increased pressure may be manifested in a variety of symptoms, depending upon type and severity, such as excavation of the optic disk, hardness of the eyeball, corneal anesthesia, reduced visual acuity, seeing of colored halos around lights, disturbed dark adaptation, visual field defects, and headaches.
