ARVO LIVE: AI revolution in ophthalmology
Ophthalmology Times® talked with AnnMarie Hipsley, DPT, PhD, about 3D finite element model used to understand more about the biomechanics of accommodation and dis-accommodation as it relates to functions for visual function as well as aqueous hydrodynamics at this year’s ARVO meeting.

Ocular Health Implications of the Loss of Dynamic Range of Focus Function in Presbyopia
Presbyopia is defined as the eye’s loss of ability to focus on objects at near distances, and it is the most common cause of age-related vision impairment. Presbyopia is a significant global health issue that is underdiagnosed. It affects all people in their 40s and older: an estimated 90 million people in the United States …

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 …

A novel procedure-based treatment for presbyopia, called laser scleral microportion (LSM), aims to restore dynamic range of focus by un-crosslinking the sclera. Mitchell A. Jackson, MD, joins host I. Paul Singh, MD, to talk about the procedure and 24-month outcomes from a recently presented study.
