Abstract
The suitability of a corneal graft for transplant surgery is based on different criteria. It may be rejected in particular due to a loss of transparency, directly linked to its scattering properties. Then, these become an important parameter. The aim of this paper is to quantify the influence of the cornea thickness and of the epithelial layer on scattering properties. The origin of scattering is discussed based on polarimetric analysis of scattered field (surface and/or bulk) and on full-field optical coherence tomography imaging (structural information).
