- Additional information
- The results of this work allowed biomechanically corrected intraocular pressure measurements and a measurement of the stress strain index, both of which have been incorporated in the non-contact tonometer, Corvis ST, produced by Oculus (Germany) [Sven Reisdorf, s.reisdorf@oculus.de] to better manage glaucoma and keratoconus. The models are also being used by Optimeyes (Switzerland) for customisation of refractive surgery procedures [Harald Studer harald.studer@optimo-medical.com].
