Abstract
Hysteresis was significantly higher in normal than in keratoconic eyes. It may be a useful measurement in addition to CCT, when assessing ocular rigidity, and may be of particular importance when trying to correct intraocular measurements for increased or decreased ocular rigidity. Long-term studies of change in hysteresis may provide information on the progression of keratoconus.
