PURPOSE: Collagen is the main load-bearing component of the eye, and collagen crimp is a critical determinant of tissue mechanical behavior. We test the hypothesis that collagen crimp morphology varies over the human cornea and sclera and with age. METHODS: We analyzed 42 axial whole-globe sections...
