Ocular rigidity may affect corneal biomechanics after refractive surgery- July 15, 2006 San Francisco—During the past year, researchers have been diligently studying how refractive surgery affects corneal biomechanics. One of the major factors that affect the biomechanics of the cornea is total eye rigidity, according to Ioannis G. Pallikaris, MD, who spoke during the Innovator's Session at the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery annual meeting.http://www.modernmedicine.com/modernmedicine/Refractive+Surgery/Ocular-rigidity-may-affect...
