Measurement and evaluation of biomechanical properties of cornea “in vivo”

This paper deals with the measurement and evaluation of biomechanical properties during the measurement of intraocular pressure using a non-contact ocular tonometer with a pachymetric function. From the measured ophthalmological quantities, we evaluate the mechanical properties of the cornea, which...
