Purpose: To use finite element (FE) analysis to understand the origin of the ocular pulse and predict its biomechanical impact on the optic nerve head (ONH). Methods: An FE model of a healthy eye was reconstructed. The choroid was biphasic and consisted of a solid phase (connective tissues) and a fl...
