Factors influencing corneal biomechanical changes after microincision cataract surgery and standard coaxial phacoemulsification

Cataract surgery with MICS and coaxial phacoemulsification significantly altered corneal biomechanics. Corneal hysteresis was inversely correlated with Goldmann-correlated IOP; CRF was inversely correlated with age and AL. The MICS technique provided more stable corneal biomechanical properties than standard coaxial phacoemulsification 1 month postoperatively.
