Optical coherence elastography of the cornea: progress in clinical translation

Corneal biomechanical properties are of great importance in the structural homeostasis of the cornea, the principle focusing element of the eye. Because of the exquisite relationship between corneal geometry and optical performance, alterations in these properties have direct consequences for human visual function. The precision and safety of corneal refractive surgery procedures are highly influenced by inter-individual differences in these properties, and focal corneal weakness is a key feature of corneal ectatic diseases such as keratoconus. This presentation will highlight clinical applications of corneal elasticity imaging and advances in the implementation of an applanation-based approach to optical coherence elastography.
