Simulation of aqueous humour (ah) flows and deformation of descement membrane detachment (dmd) in a three dimensional anterior chamber (ac)

This thesis strives the interaction between the aqueous humour (AH) flows and the deformation of Descemet membrane detachment (DMD) in a 3D anterior chamber (AC). Descemet membrane detachment (DMD) is an uncomman condition with a wide range of possible cause of disease. The aqueous humour flow in th...
