pubmed:abstractText |
According to the Helmholtz theory of accommodation, one of the major reasons for the development of presbyopia is the progressive sclerosis of the crystalline lens. However, both the ciliary muscle and the lens capsule stay active and elastic. Thus, the concept for regaining the deformation-ability of the crystalline lens is to create microincisions inside lens tissue to achieve gliding planes.
