This special issue of the Journal for Modeling in Ophthalmology collects, in the form of extended abstracts, contributions presented during the Thematic Symposium on Eye Biomechanics, organized within the VII Annual Meeting of the Italian Chapter of the European Society of Biomechanics (ESB-ITA 2017) held on September 28-29, 2017 in Rome, Italy. 

You may see the Table of Contents and full issue here.

This issue features highlights of research presented at ARVO as, to quote from the editorial by R.J. Braun:

 "At the ARVO annual meeting, the contributions that involve significant mathematical modeling of ocular physiology and procedures is on the increase. There has long been significant use of statistical methods for understanding data from a variety of uses such as in-vivo measurements and human trials of various sorts."

Furthermore, there is a very interesting study on Racial differences in the correlations between structural parameters and ocular blood flow in healthy eyes.

Two more articles will be added shortly, so do keep an eye out on the table of contents.
