Abstract
A new technique, the scleral expansion band procedure, has been developed for the surgical reversal of presbyopia. The effects of scleral expansion band are based on a recently developed theory by Schachar, which states that the crystalline lens is under increased equatorial zonular tension during accommodation. An understanding of demonstrable clinical effects of the scleral expansion band procedure, based on Schachar's theory, requires a revision of historically held views concerning the mechanism of accommodation.
