Corneal Biomechanics in Ectatic Diseases: Refractive Surgery Implications. [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Ectasia development occurs due to a chronic corneal biomechanical decompensation or weakness, resulting in stromal thinning and corneal protrusion. This leads to corneal steepening, increase in astigmatism, and irregularity.

Regulation of corneal stromal cell behavior by modulating curvature using a hydraulically-controlled organ chip array [PDF]

Nature Communications
Corneal curvature abnormalities drive ectatic diseases, yet their mechanobiological effects on stromal cells remain poorly understood. We developed a hydraulically controlled curvature array chip recapitulating disease-relevant geometries (33-56D) to ...
