ABSTRACT
Background:
hysteresis refers to the energy lost during the stress/strain cycle which is the result of viscous damping in the corneal tissue, is an indicator of corneal biomechanical properties. Refractive surgery currently uses corneal thickness as a basic qualification and planning parameter. However, corneal hysteresis may be more useful as a qualification factor for LASIK, a significant decrease in the IOP and biomechanical properties is found in eyes following LASIK surgery
