A dynamical simulation method is presented to model the cornea deformation in surgery of laser thermokeratoplasty. The virtual cornea is constructed as a mass-spring system. The corneal surface tension is simulated by damping spring stretch between mass points on the cornea model. The aqueous humor in the eyeball is modeled as ideal gas, and the intraocular pressure is simulated by gas pressure. The coagulation force is exerted on each photocoagulation spot to demonstrate its collapse caused by the condensation of corneal soft tissue irradiated by laser. An extra viscous drag force is added to each mass point to weaken the mass point oscillation. The use of the effective time-corrected Verlet integral method brings about flowing and stable dynamic simulation procedures. The simulation results show that, comparing to the undeformed model, the curvature of the region between the optical center and photocoagulation spot increases obviously. Moreover, the shape of the deformed virtual cornea is much similar to that of the real cornea after surgery.
