In cornea 5, the force curves were acquired at approach speeds of 1.7- and 12.3-μm/s both before (left column) and after (right column) riboflavin/UV-A corneal cross-linking. After treatment, the approach curves became steeper, thus demonstrating an increased stiffness of the stroma; in addition, hysteresis decreased at the scale of stromal molecular interactions.
