Relationship between Young’s modulus of elasticity and ocular parameters and age. Young’s modulus was correlated with IOP but not central corneal thickness, axial length, or age.
| Mean ± SD | r (Pearson correlation) | p (GEE) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Young’s modulus of elasticity | 696 ± 113 kPa | ||
| IOP (GAT1) | 12.6 ± 2.7 mmHg | 0.57 | 0.004 |
| Age | 51.4 ± 7.2 yrs | 0.023 | 0.88 |
| CCT (pachymeter) | 541 ± 37 μm | −0.14 | 0.65 |
| CCT (pentacam) | 549 ± 38 μm | −0.23 | 0.43 |
| CCT (6mm) | 598 ± 43 μm | −0.23 | 0.43 |
| Axial length | 23.7 ± 0.8 mm | 0.18 | 0.30 |
