Ace Vision Group to Present Nine New Sets of Scientific Data Focused on Laser Scleral Microporation at the ESCRS Annual Meeting
Ace Vision Group (AVG) announced it will present nine sets of research on the effectiveness of Laser Scleral Microporation (LSM) at the annual congress of the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons (ESCRS).
LSM is an ultra-minimally invasive procedure with a novel therapeutic approach to treating the aging eye.

Dynamic Range of Focus of the Eye: Understanding Biomechanics and Kinematics: Part II
IN PART I OF THIS 3-PART series, we outlined the definition of ocular biomechanics and kinematics and described the mechanical laws under which they operate.1 In this article, we describe the specific elements and motions responsible for achieving Dynamic Range of Focus (DRoF), including the phases of vision from accommodation to disaccommodation (near to far) and disaccommodation …

What other future treatments have promise? Laser scleral microporation is under investigation as a laser treatment for patients with emmetropic presbyopia. Four quadrants of the sclera are treated with an Er:YAG laser to uncrosslink the sclera and rejuvenate the accommodative mechanism (see video demonstration below). Treatment does not appear to affect the visual axis or …

While considered by many to be a “normal process of aging,” the loss of the dynamic focusing function of the eye, presbyopia, is a progressive disease of ocular aging. Presbyopia affects approximately 1.8 billion people globally.1 Estimated global annual productivity losses are approximately 0.037% of the global gross domesticproduct in presbyopic adults less than 65 years …
