	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Lens (vision)
		The ciliary muscle is a muscle that affects zonules in the eye (fibers that suspend the lens in position during accommodation), enabling changes in lens shape for light focusing.
		During the fetal stage, the development of the lens is aided by the hyaloid artery.
		The aqueous humour is the clear, watery fluid that fills the complex space in the front of the eye which is bounded at the front by the cornea and at the rear by the front surface or face of the vitreous humour.

		Refractive Lens Exchange at Stahl Vision, Dayton, Ohio.
		Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE) involves removing the natural lens of the eye that has lost its ability to focus at near and far, and replace it with an implant lens that allows clear vision for distance and near vision.
		Refractive lens exchange is done at our ambulatory surgery center as an outpatient procedure that takes about thirty minutes—you go in for your surgery in the morning, and go home a couple of hours later.

		To find the DOF for detector limited resolution, we choose the diffraction spot size created by the lens to be one pixel width in diameter, and the geometric blur due to defocus also to be one pixel width in diameter.
		For example, with the lens operating at f/22 and allowing a geometric blur of two pixel widths, the DOF is 3.2 mm, which is four times larger.
		In optics, distortion is a particular lens aberration that causes objects to be imaged farther or closer to the optical axis than for a perfect image.

	Lens and Cataract Program - National Plan for Eye and Vision Research [NEI Strategic Planning]
		Knowledge that the functional inactivation of genes—whose activity is mainly required during early stages of lens formation—also leads to cataract formation due to their downstream effects in structural lens fiber genes such as crystallins has brought researchers closer to a mechanistic understanding of certain types of cataract.
		Key to understanding lens function is an understanding of the controls of lens epithelial cell proliferation and differentiation into fiber cells, a process that begins during development and continues throughout life.
		Identification of mutations in human lens fiber cell cytoskeletal genes, combined with information from studies on genetically engineered mice, establishes that some elements of the lens cytoskeleton are not required to achieve optical clarity but are required to maintain it.

		The lens remains in the proper vertical position on the eye because it is weighted with extra thickness at the bottom of the lens.
		According to WJ, this soft lens with a UV blocker is the only disposable on the market with a center near design; an outer distance zone surrounds a progressive intermediate zone, which in turn surrounds a center near zone measuring just under 2 mm.
		The lens has a base curve of 8.6 mm and is available in powers ranging from +2.00 D to -4.00 D, with adds of +1.00 D, +1.50 D and +2.00 D. This introductory power range will be expanded, and a full product launch is expected early next year.

		This vision defect occurs with the advancement of age; the onset usually occurs between the ages of 40 to 45.

		It should be noted that the power of a contact lens would not necessarily be the same as that of a spectacle prescription due to the optics of a lens being closer to the eye.
		A contact lens prescription differs from a spectacle prescription primarily by the addition of lens parameters such as diameter of the lenses, the base curve, the type of material of the contact lens, and the design or manufacturer’s name.
		A: Contact lens solutions do three things: (1) clean the lenses to remove over 90% of the germs that can grow on them; (2) disinfect to kill any germs on the lens to prevent eye infections; and (3) buffer and wet the lenses to make them more comfortable to wear.

	Lens-Particle Glaucoma
		The crystalline lens (commonly referred to as the lens) is the natural lens of the eye, located behind the pupil.
		The lens may cause lens-induced glaucomas, which are typically associated with abnormally high eye pressure and possible vision loss.
		Although high pressure inside the eye, optic nerve damage, and vision loss are not all required to diagnose glaucoma, a diagnosis of glaucoma is often determined when all 3 criteria are present.

		Because the lens incorporates a technology known as wavefront for analyzing the way the eye sees, certain vision distortions (higher order aberrations) not addressed by ordinary lenses can be corrected.
		The company says the lens was designed to improve the functional vision of cataract surgery patients — in other words, to improve the ability to see objects in varying light conditions, such as nighttime, rain, snow, fog, and twilight.
		The lens, which is used to replace a cataract patient's eye's natural lens that has become clouded, filters both ultraviolet and portions of high-energy blue light.

		Our previous solution to improve near vision via lens replacement has been a technique called monovision, where one eye is corrected for distance vision, and the other corrected for near vision.

		A camera lens optimized to work at magnifications near 1 is called a macro lens.
