Other pieces to aid in understanding glaucoma have presented throughout the years, including the role of corneal thickness. The discussion and debate on the mechanism of glaucoma have been attributed to resistance at the level of the conventional outflow pathway, perfusion pressure to the optic nerve head, cerebral spinal fluid pressure, and many more. Another piece that has emerged is corneal hysteresis, an assessment of the cornea’s ability to absorb and dissipate energy. There is abundant published literature supporting corneal hysteresis being associated with the presence and severity of glaucoma, the structural and functional progression of glaucoma, and the conversion to glaucoma. The supported data in these studies add another piece, corneal hysteresis, to consider in the diagnosis and management of glaucoma.Keywords: glaucoma, corneal hysteresis, corneal biomechanicsZimprich LDiedrich JBleeker ASchweitzer JADove Medical Pressarticleglaucomacorneal hysteresiscorneal biomechanicsOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 14, Pp 2255-2264 (2020)
