ABSTRACT
To assess the structural integrity of the cornea, non-invasive methods are needed for the local measurement of its mechanical properties. Among a number of established techniques and their associated advantages and disadvantages, Brillouin spectroscopy is still a relatively new technique, capable of determining the compressive modulus of biological tissue, specifically the cornea, in vivo. In the present paper, these various existing and developing technologies for corneal biomechanics are discussed and correlated.
