Noninvasive assessment of age-related stiffness of crystalline lenses in a rabbit model using ultrasound elastography
Abstract Background The pathological or physiological changes of a crystalline lens directly affect the eye accommodation and transmittance, and then they increase the risk of presbyopia and cataracts for people in the middle and old age groups. There is no universally accepted quantitative method t...
