Increased scleral rigidity and age-related macular degeneration.

E Friedman1, M Ivry, E Ebert, R Glynn, E Gragoudas, J Seddon.   

Abstract

The coefficient of scleral rigidity of the eyes of 29 patients with age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) was significantly higher than the rigidity of 25 control patients, frequency matched for age. The data suggest that an increased scleral rigidity may be a significant risk factor for the development of the disorder.
