Description

Xian Wu and three co-authors review corneal biomechanics in glaucoma, in work published in 2026. Measures of corneal stiffness affect how eye pressure readings are read, and they may capture wall weakness that thickness alone misses. Their structured search covered major databases from the start through mid-2026, plus reference lists of key papers.

Two main devices give measures that cannot be swapped directly. Lower corneal hysteresis is linked in a steady way to glaucoma and faster decline. Results for the second device vary more by subtype and by factors such as pressure and treatment. The authors class these measures as helpful extra markers, not stand-alone tests, and they call for standard methods.
