All biomechanical parameters derived from CorVis ST.

CorVis ST parametersMeans

A1-timeTime from starting until the first applanation
A2-time Time from starting until the second applanation
A1-length Cord length of the first applanation
A2-length Cord length of the second applanation
A1-velocity (A1-V) Corneal speed during the first applanation moment
A2-velocity (A2-V) Corneal speed during the second applanation moment
Highest concavity-time (HC-time)Time from starting until HC is reached
Peak distance (PD) Distance between the two peaks of the cornea at HC
HC radiusCentral concave curvature at HC
Deformation amplitude (DA)Maximum amplitude at the highest concavity
