Abstract

This paper comments on the article “Retinal pulse wave velocity measurement using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography” by Qian Li et al. The authors propose a method to determine the pulse wave velocity in retinal arteries and veins. This method should enable a noninvasive determination of biomechanical properties of the vessel network, particularly the elasticity of the vessel walls. Although the observations the authors made might seem reasonable at first glance, they are in fact highly surprising and contradictory to theoretical predictions and previously published results.
