Abstract Introduction: Corneal biomechanical properties could affect intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement. The aim of this study was to evaluate the differences in corneal biomechanical properties of various types of glaucoma, assess their effect on IOP measurements. Methods: This is an observatio...
