[vc_row ts_bgcolor=”primarydarkgrey”][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]Corneal hysteresis determines biochemical properties of the cornea. It has turned out that the measurement of hysteresis has higher prognostic value in glaucoma<\/a> than the measurement of corneal thickness. Also, intraocular pressure compensated on the basis of the results of hysteresis has higher diagnostic value, especially at low pressure, than the Goldmann applanation. The pressure measurement including hysteresis is performed using ORA (Ocular Response Analyzer) Reichert Ltd. Examinations of patients with glaucoma using ORA, and the risk assessment of disease progression are available at the Private Office of Professor Zag\u00f3rski in Lublin, at 6 Ogrodowa Street.[\/vc_column_text]
