Corneal biomechanical properties in normal‐tension glaucoma

Abstract

IOPcc was significantly higher in NTG eyes than in normal eyes. The ORA may be useful for distinguishing between the IOPcc of NTG eyes with normal IOP and that of normal eyes. In addition, the ORA enables CRF and CH to be measured in vivo, and weakness of the lamina cribrosa may be clinically inferred from the fact that CRF and CH were reduced in NTG eyes in our study. Low CRF and CH may be clues to the pathology of NTG.
