Correlation of internet search enquiries, incidence of ophthalmological diseases and corneal, cataract and refractive surgical procedures. [PDF]
AbstractAnalysis of internet search queries (ISQ) could be useful to study public interest and medical need for corneal, cataract, and refractive surgery. To date, there are preliminary data on seasonal trends in ophthalmic conditions, but only few studies correlate these data with real data from healthcare systems.

Biomechanical Simulation of Stress Concentration and Intraocular Pressure in Corneas Subjected to Myopic Refractive Surgical Procedures. [PDF]
AbstractRecent advances in the analysis of corneal biomechanical properties remain difficult to predict the structural stability before and after refractive surgery. In this regard, we applied the finite element method (FEM) to determine the roles of the Bowman’s membrane, stroma, and Descemet’s membrane in the hoop stresses of cornea, under tension ...
