Simulation of wave propagation inside a human eye : acoustic eye model (AEM)

Požar, Tomaž (author), Halilovič, Miroslav (author), Horvat, Darja (author), Petkovšek, Rok (author)

The design and development of the acoustic eye model (AEM) is reported. The model consists of a computer-based simulation that describes the propagation of mechanical disturbance inside a simplified model of a human eye. The capabilities of the model are illustrated with examples, using different laser-induced initial loading conditions in different geometrical configurations typically occurring in ophthalmic medical procedures. The potential of the AEM is to predict the mechanical response of the treated eye tissue in advance, thus complementing other preliminary procedures preceding medical treatments.
