Characterisation and Modelling of an Artificial Lens Capsule Mimicking Accommodation of Human Eyes

Characterisation and Modelling of an Artificial Lens Capsule Mimicking Accommodation of Human Eyes

A synthetic material of silicone rubber was used to construct an artificial lens capsule (ALC) in order to replicate the biomechanical behaviour of human lens capsule. The silicone rubber was characterised by monotonic and cyclic mechanical tests to reveal its hyper-elastic behaviour under uniaxial...
