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.

In-office procedures offer ophthalmic surgeons and patients the greatest flexibility and efficiency of scheduling. Procedures such as YAG capsulotomy, select laser trabeculoplasty, laser pupil iridoplasty, LASIK/PRK/SMILE and minor lid procedures are routinely done within the in-office surgery suite. A large 2016 study demonstrated the safety and outcomes of cataract procedures performed within the surgeon’s office, …
