Biomechanical Impact of the Sclera on Corneal Deformation Response to an Air-Puff: A Finite-Element Study

Aim or Purpose: To describe the effect of varying scleral stiffness on the biomechanical deformation response of the cornea under air-puff loading via a finite-element (FE) model. Methods: A two-dimensional axisymmetric stationary FE model of the whole human eye was used to examine the effects varyi...
