Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-9325-9964 An Update on Corneal Biomechanics and Architecture in Diabetes 2019 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted In the last decade, we have witnessed substantial progress in our understanding of corneal biomechanics and architecture. It is well known that diabetes is a systemic metabolic disease that causes chronic progressive damage in the main organs of the human body, including the eyeball. Although the main and most widely recognized ocular effect of diabetes is on the retina, the structure of the cornea (the outermost and transparent tissue of the eye) can also be affected by the poor glycemic control characterizing diabetes. e different corneal structures (epithelium, stroma, and endothelium) are affected by specific complications of diabetes. e development of new noninvasive diagnostic technologies has provided a better understanding of corneal tissue modifications. e objective of this review is to describe the advances in the knowledge of the corneal alterations that diabetes can induce info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/T88 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/DPI2017-84047-R info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/deed.es 1.447 2019 OPHTHALMOLOGY 41 / 60 = 0.683 2019 Q3 T3 MEDICINE, RESEARCH & EXPERIMENTAL 116 / 138 = 0.841 2019 Q4 T3 0.828 2019 Ophthalmology 2019 Q2 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Casas, Paula Caramello, Constanza López, Nuria de la Rica, Marisa Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-4270-1660 Subirón, Ana B.
