Multiphysics continuum mechanics models to advance glaucoma research: State-of-the-art and future perspectives
This review provides a broad vision on the use of mechanistic mathematical models based on continuum mechanics to tackle current challenges in glaucoma research. At present, the advent of Artificial Intelligence and data-based models have resulted in significant progress in drug candidate selection, target identification and drug delivery. Mechanistic models (not based on data gathered beforehand, but on fundamental physical principles), and specifically those based on continuum mechanics, have the potential to contribute to a better understanding of glaucoma, too. So far, these models have expanded our understanding of ocular fluid dynamics, including descriptions of fluid flow profiles within the anterior chamber of the eye under glaucomatous conditions. With the emergence of models with complex multiphysics capabilities (not only on fluid dynamics, but also diffusion, heat transfer and fluid-structure interaction), there are now even greater possibilities for the application of mechanistic models to help with current challenges in glaucoma, such as the design of drug-releasing implants, novel glaucoma drainage devices, minimally invasive glaucoma surgery procedures, and laser peripheral iridotomy.
