Mechanisms for Acute Corneal Hydrops and Perforation

Eye & Contact Lens: Science & Clinical Practice, 2014
Acute corneal hydrops (ACH) and perforation in corneal thinning diseases are the consequences of exposure to distending intraocular pressure (IOP) forces that are in excess of corneal resistance to them. Apart from thinning, resistance to these forces may be reduced by disease-related tissue changes, such as corneal scarring, which could lower ...
