Hyperelastic modelling of the crystalline lens: Accommodation and presbyopia

Purpose: The modification of the mechanical properties of the human crystalline lens with age can be a major cause of presbyopia. Since these properties cannot be measured in vivo, numerical simulation can be used to estimate them. We propose an inverse method to determine age-dependent change in th...
