Biomechanical Measurement of Rabbit Cornea by a Modified Scheimpflug Device.

Conclusions. The modified Scheimpflug device was a valuable tool to investigate the biomechanics of the cornea. The posterior pressure 15-75 mmHg range produced small viscoelastic deformations and nearly linear pressure-deformation response in the rabbit cornea. PMID: 27446608 [PubMed]
