Table 2.
Increment of myopia (ΔD) in diopters (D) induced by the scleral buckling surgery in the numerical model. Nine cases are considered. IOP is the intraocular pressure, BW is the width of the band implanted, ALpre is the axial length before the simulation of the surgery, ALpos is the axial length after the simulation, and ΔAL is the increment of axial length. The mean value of ΔAL and ΔD for each of the three bandwidths is also shown.
