SOLITARY WAVE-BASED TRANS-LID TONOMETER
Apparatus include a particle array configured to propagate an incident solitary wave to an eye, a housing configured to support the particle array, and a sensor coupled to the particle array and configured to detect a return solitary wave propagating along the particle array from the eye. Methods include directing an incident solitary wave along a solitary wave particle array coupled to an eye and detecting a return solitary wave propagating along the solitary wave particle array from the eye. Methods also include estimating intraocular pressure for the eye by comparing solitary wave data to a relationship between a time of return solitary wave time of flight and an intraocular pressure.
COLOCALIZED DETECTION OF RETINAL PERFUSION AND OPTIC NERVE HEAD DEFORMATIONS
Relationships between morphological changes to an eye due to intraocular pressure changes and blood perfusion changes in the retina are determined by colocalizing retinal perfusion data and optic nerve head (ONH) mechanical deformation data. Perfusion changes from intraocular pressure (IOP) changes are determined by colocalizing retinal perfusion data with ONH mechanical deformation data. Optical coherence tomography-angiography (OCT-A) can be used to generate both retinal perfusion data and mechanical deformation data for an imaged volume. A three-dimensional model (e.g., connectivity map or connectivity model) of the vasculature can be generated from the OCT-A imaging data and used to predict changes in blood perfusion in various areas of the retina due to IOP-induced mechanical deformations.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TESTING PERIPHERAL VISION
Systems and methods according to present principles use touchscreen-based devices such as tablet computers or other computers incorporating touchscreens to both run the test and to receive input/output. It will be understood that any such device may be employed, so long as a display, means for user input, and means for eye tracking, are provided, and so long as its display screen is large enough to effectively test visual field.
SYSTEM AND METHOD TO MEASURE TISSUE BIOMECHANICAL PROPERTIES WITHOUT EXTERNAL EXCITATION
A system and method for measuring biomechanical properties of tissues without external excitation are capable of measuring and quantifying these parameters of tissues in situ and in vivo. The system and method preferably utilize a phase-sensitive optical coherence tomography (OCT) system for measuring the displacement caused by the intrinsic heartbeat. The method allows noninvasive and nondestructive quantification of tissue mechanical properties. Preferably, the method is used to detect tissue stiffness and to evaluate its stiffness due to intrinsic pulsatile motion from the heartbeat. This noninvasive method can evaluate the biomechanical properties of the tissues in vivo for detecting the onset and progression of degenerative or other diseases and evaluating the efficacy of therapies.
