Patent ID: 8435233

Claim:
A method for restoring accommodation of a lens having vision defect/problem including presbyopia in eye, said method comprising steps of: surveying a lens to be treated; establishing accommodation amplitude for the lens; estimating actual accommodation amplitude for the lens and determining the volume of the lens proteins to be photoablated; dividing the lens into parallel coronal planes; locating a zone for photoablation within the lens behind the iris; selecting a coronal plane for photoablation; directing an incidental laser beam obliquely at a predetermined angle towards the coronal plane behind the iris to bring out a spot photoablation within the selected zones behind the iris; and performing plurality of spot photoablation in substantially circular way on the coronal plane behind the iris within the selected zone thereby reducing the coronal diameter and thickness at sub-equatorial region of the lens causing reduction in circumlental crowding in the sub-cialiary region of the eye including crowding of zonular fibers resulting tensing of zonular fibres thereby re-establishing accommodation in the eye of the ocular lens.
