摘要

An exoteric geometric mechanics model of ocular accommodation is detailed to elucidate the main ideas of various ongoing modeling efforts. The present study derives solutions for the stretched state of the ocular lens as it might appear during accommodation by using simple geometric arguments and a volume constraint, rather than the more mathematically intensive theory of elasticity. Results show that geometric shapes similar to the lens will deform in a similar fashion. This implies that, while the true lens geometry is somewhat more complex, it should also follow these qualitative behaviors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
