Abstract
The measurement of ocular biomechanics has a fundamental role in the diagnostics of ocular pathologies, and the monitoring of corneal treatments. In this work, we present success cases of clinical translation of wave-based optical coherence elastography to map the elasticity of human corneas in the following applications: (1) diagnosis and staging of keratoconus; (2) evaluation of the biomechanical impact of keratoconus treatments (UV-crosslinking, intrastromal ring segments, and corneal transplants); and (3) assessment of elastic changes in corneas after LASIK refractive surgery. This work contributes towards the development of a more effective diagnosis and customized treatment of eye diseases that will support ophthalmologists during their clinical decision-making.
