The surgical correction of presbyopia : Accommodation , pseudo - accommodation or multifocality ?
“It is undoubtedly the final frontier of cataract and refractive surgery.There is great interest and excitement in this field of research at the moment and we are seeing some very interesting approaches coming on stream which hold great promise for future treatment of presbyopia,” said David Spalton FRCS, FRCOphth, who co-chaired the symposium. Dr Spalton said it was important to remember that ...
متن کاملA review of the surgical options for the correction of presbyopia.
Presbyopia is an age-related eye condition where one of the signs is the reduction in the amplitude of accommodation, resulting in the loss of ability to change the eye's focus from far to near. It is the most common age-related ailments affecting everyone around their mid-40s. Methods for the correction of presbyopia include contact lens and spectacle options but the surgical correction of pre...
متن کاملAccommodation and presbyopia.
Accommodation is a dioptric change in power of the eye that occurs to allow near objects to be focused on the retina. The ability to accommodate is lost with increasing age in humans and monkeys. This phenomenon, called presbyopia, is the most common human ocular affliction, and its pathophysiology remains uncertain. The progressive loss of human accommodative amplitude begins early in life and...
متن کاملReview of Static Approaches to Surgical Correction of Presbyopia
Presbyopia is the primary cause of reduction in the quality of life of people in their 40s, due to dependence on spectacles. Therefore, presbyopia correction has become an evolving and rapidly progressive field in refractive surgery. There are two primary options for presbyopia correction: the dynamic approach uses the residual accommodative capacity of the eye, and the static approach attempts...
متن کاملDynamic aspects of accommodation: age and presbyopia
Dear Editor Mordi and Ciuffreda (2004) have used an objective infrared optometer to measure the dynamic aspects of accommodation with aging in a large well-designed study. Their study demonstrates no change in the time constant and peak velocity/amplitude of accommodation with age. Based upon this observation, the authors correctly conclude that their findings imply that presbyopia cannot be du...
