Finite element modelling of radial lentotomy cuts to improve the accommodation performance of the human lens

Abstract:
Purpose: The use of a femtosecond laser to form planes of cavitation bubbles within the ocular lens has been proposed as a potential treatment for presbyopia. The intended purpose of these planes of cavitation bubbles (referred to in this paper as ‘cutting planes’) is to increase the compliance of the lens, with a consequential increase in the amplitude of accommodation. The current paper describes a computational modelling study, based on three-dimensional finite element ana... Expand abstract
