Results of mechanical stress-strain tests on perilimbal and posterior sclera samples at the strain rate of 0.005 s^-1.

<p>(A) Raw stress-strain data (thin dotted lines) and average (thick solid line) for the perilimbal samples. (B) Average stress-strain curves of perilimbal sclera (solid line) and posterior sclera (dashed line). Circle [<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0195882#pone.0195882.ref018" target="_blank">18</a>] and square [<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0195882#pone.0195882.ref017" target="_blank">17</a>] marker points are from previously published data for posterior sclera. (C) Tangent modulus versus stress extracted from the average curve in Fig 3A.
