We consider an optimal control problem subject to a poro-visco-elastic model with applications to fluid flows through biological tissues. Our goal is to optimize the fluid pressure and solid displacement using distributed or boundary control. We discuss an application of this problem to a tissue in the human eye. Previous literature on well- posedness of the poro-visco-elastic model are reviewed. Results on the existence of an optimal control and the associated necessary optimality conditions are presented.
