The Answer for Aging Eyes?
The accommodation mechanism is the core moving “engine” of the eye – responsible for dynamic range of visual focus, as well as hydrodynamic equilibrium and circulatory functions. Doesn’t it seem likely that there would be potential ocular health benefits in rejuvenating rigid ocular tissues?
Today, there still is no authentic viable therapeutic to rejuvenate ocular rigidity and restore accommodation biomechanics. While other surgical approaches focus on exchanging the refractive power of the cornea or the lens, LSM presents an opportunity to treat one of the causes of aging eye pathogenesis.

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 …

Among the many options for presbyopia, scleral approaches stand out for their unique attempt to tackle the roots of the problem, restoring physiological function rather than aiming for optical compensation. They had a slow takeoff and limited acceptance, but step by step, through a long path of research and technological upgrades, they continue to move …
