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 …

VIENNA — In this Healio Video Perspective from the ESCRS meeting, Luca Gualdi, MD, speaks about the latest advances in laser scleral microporation. Laser scleral microporation (LSM, Ace Vision Group) is a treatment that restores accommodation in presbyopic patients by uncross-linking the scleral tissue that becomes stiff with age. It does so by performing arrays of micropores in …
read moreLaser scleral microporation: Unique method to treat presbyopia goes back to basics
Laser scleral microporation is a unique therapeutic solution for presbyopia that goes back to basics, rejuvenating the eye and restoring the natural dynamic mechanism of accommodation and disaccommodation. “Nature frequently develops dynamic processes, which work well for most individuals for the first 40 or 50 years of life but then, because of changes in the intrinsic …

VIENNA — In this Healio Video Perspective from the ESCRS meeting, Robert Ang, MD, shares his results with laser scleral microporation for the treatment of presbyopia. He explains the rationale of laser scleral microporation (Ace Vision Group), how it is performed, and the advantages of a treatment that does not interfere with the visual axis and allows the …

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.

A PRIMARY FOCUS IN OPHthalmic health care has been on providing solutions to help our patients “see” more clearly and curtail the effects of uncurable age-related eye diseases, such as presbyopia, cataracts, glau-coma, and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The eye contains more than 2 million working parts and is considered the second most complex organ …
read moreImprovement in Accommodation and Dynamic Range of Focus After Laser Scleral Microporation: A Potential Treatment for Presbyopia
Purpose: To examine the ocular changes in accommodation, wavefront aberrations, and dynamic range of focus (DROF) after laser scleral microporation (LSM) for treating presbyopia.
read moreUnlocking the recovery of dynamic range of focus with microporation therapeutics
Laser Scleral Microporation (LSM) is a therapy which represents the first biomechanical solution to the biomechanical problems of progressive presbyopia. The therapy is performed using the VisioLite® Ophthalmic Laser system developed by Ace Vision Group (AVG). Today, having no biomechanical option able to meet the loss of dynamic range of focus (DRoF) that occurs with progressive …

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 …

DUE TO THE AGING OF THE population, most of our population will spend roughly half of their lives as presby-opes. The etiology of presby-opia has been poorly understood, and treatment options have failed to address the true issues with the disease, creating compro mises in vision that patients are eager to find a solution for, …
