Claim 20:
21. An apparatus, comprising:
a particle array configured to propagate an incident solitary wave to an eye;
a housing configured to support the particle array;
a sensor coupled to the particle array and configured to detect a return solitary wave propagating along the particle array from the eye;
a solitary wave actuator coupled to the particle array and configured to produce the incident solitary wave in the particle array;
a function generator coupled to the actuator and configured to generate an incident solitary wave signal for the actuator;
an analog to digital converter coupled to the sensor and configured to digitize the detected return solitary wave to form a digitized return solitary wave signal;
a processor coupled to the analog to digital converter and function generator; and
a memory coupled to the processor and configured with instructions executable by the processor for controlling the production of the incident solitary wave in the particle array.
