Optics Express 20(8): 9197-9202.1094-4087http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:11179746We report the first Brillouin measurement of the human eye in vivo. We constructed a Brillouin optical scanner safe for human use by employing continuous-wave laser light at 780 nm at a low power of 0.7 mW. With a single scan along the optic axis of the eye, the axial profile of Brillouin frequency shift was obtained with a pixel acquisition time of 0.4 s and axial resolution of about 60 μm, showing the depth-dependent biomechanical properties in the cornea and lens.en-USSpectrometersScattering, BrillouinJournal Article2013-10-1610.1364/OE.20.009197
