title: [Biomechanical properties of the cornea in primary open-angle glaucoma].
abstract: The paper discusses the impact of some properties of corneal tissue (central corneal thickness, curvature radius, elasticity, etc.). The dynamic bilateral applanation process underlying the ocular analyzer provides exact information on the index determining the viscoelastic properties of the cornea - corneal hysteresis. The author presents the results of detecting corneal hysteresis in individuals without oculopathy and in patients with glaucoma, as well as the association of this index with the central thickness of the cornea, the levels of corneal compensated pressure, and the intraocular value equated to the Goldman tonometric index.
