Unlocking 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, the need remains unmet. Current solutions involve the exchange of refractive power either at the cornea or the lens with the newest solution being a variety of pharmacological miotic eye drops that artificially stimulate the iris muscle to create a “pinhole effect” to see more clearly at near.

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 …
