Following a seminar titled Pediatric Ocular Mechanics: The Elephant in the Room, the Utah Commandery of Knights Templar presented a check to the Pediatric Injury Biomechanics Lab on behalf of the Knights Templar Eye Foundation. The check will support research characterizing the material properties of pediatric ocular tissues. It’s our hope that these data will start the foundations for pediatrics ocular biomechanics and accelerate research for pediatric ocular disorders and injury.
