Cornea is an important part ofhuman's refractive system. Corneal biomechanics plays an important role in corneal ectasia and related diseases. The corneal biomechanics measured in vitro and in vivo and its clinical application in system diseases and elastic corneal disease, glaucoma, myopic are reviewed in this literature summary.
