In this study, an eye twin based on finite element modeling is used to measure advanced properties of corneal biomechanics. Raw data of Corvis ST measurement are exported from the device and imported into the model. The outcome of these calculations are merged together and are compared to further clinical findings (e. g. corneal topography and tomography, axial eye length). Further information were obtained: Age, sex, refraction, family history, known duration of disease, previous ocular surgery, systemic diseases, systemic and topical medication; biomicroscopy, anterior optical coherence tomography (OCT), Scheimpflug-based tomography (Pentacam), Biomechanical assessment (Ocular Response Analyzer and Corneal Visualization with the Scheimpflug Technology), optical biometry, confocal microscopy, endothelium cell count.
