| Tissue | K (GPa) | Z (MRayl) | α (dB/cm/MHz) | c (m/s) | ρ (g/cm3) | n | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TrM | 2.62‡ | ±0.17 | 1.64‡ | ±0.05 | 10.53† | ±3.01 | 1600* | ±58 | 1.02‡ | ±0.02 | 35 |

| PL | 2.72† | ±0.17 | 1.66‡ | ±0.06 | 9.46† | ±3.21 | 1642† | ±57 | 1.01‡ | ±0.03 | 35 |
| Pr | 2.49* | ±0.11 | 1.57* | ±0.02 | 3.44* | ±1.93 | 1586* | ±61 | 0.99* | ±0.03 | 35 |
| Sc | 2.71† | ±0.13 | 1.67† | ±0.06 | 11.70† | ±2.99 | 1618‡ | ±46 | 1.03† | ±0.04 | 72 |
Values are in means ± standard deviations. Material properties (i.e., K, Z, α, c, ρ, n) of different tissue types (i.e., TrM, CM, PL, Pr, Sc) with different symbols (i.e., *, ‡, and †) have significant different mean values (i.e., p < 0.05). For example, bulk modulus of Pr (~2.49* GPa) is significantly smaller than that of Sc (~2.71† GPa). AR = angle region; TrM = trabecular meshwork; CM = ciliary muscle; PL = pigment layer; Pr = processes; Sc = sclera.
