Evaluation of Optic Nerve Head Biomechanical Properties in Pseudoexfoliation Glaucoma with Real-time Elastography.

CONCLUSION: The strain ratios of orbital fat to optic nerve head were different in PEX glaucoma patients than in POAG and control groups. RTE can provide biomechanical assessment of the optic nerve head in a non-invasive, quick, easily accessible, and user-friendly manner.
