Spontaneous fluctuations in pupil size are not triggered by lens accommodation

چکیده
Fluctuations in pupil size and lens accommodation are measured concurrently under open loop conditions, constant illumination and far fixation. In 12/17 trials no correlation was measured between the fluctuations in pupil size and lens accommodation. For the remaining 5/17 trials no lag was observed between the changes in pupil size and lens accommodation indicating that this correlation does not arise as a consequence of a near response. These observations suggest that under conditions of constant illumination and far fixation, the supranuclear centers controlling the near response are not active.

Development of an Accommodation-Dependent Eye Model and Studying the Effects of Accommodation on Electron and Proton Dose Conversion Coefficients
Introduction International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) has provided a comprehensive discussion on threshold dose for radiation-induced cataract in ICRP publication 116. Accordingly, various parts of the eye lens have different radio-sensitivities. Recently, some studies have been performed to develop a realistic eye model with the aim of providing accurate estimation of fluence...
متن کاملThe influence of crystalline lens accommodation on post-saccadic oscillations in pupil-based eye trackers
It is well known that the crystalline lens (henceforth lens) can oscillate (or 'wobble') relative to the eyeball at the end of saccades. Recent research has proposed that such wobbling of the lens is a source of post-saccadic oscillations (PSOs) seen in data recorded by eye trackers that estimate gaze direction from the location of the pupil. Since the size of the lens wobbles increases with ac...
متن کاملThe pupil can control an artificial lens intuitively.
PURPOSE After cataract surgery, the ability to accommodate is lost. For this reason, a mechatronic IOL is being developed at the moment: The Artificial Accommodation System. This device requires an easily measureable indicator of the distance of the observed object to determine the demand of accommodation. As the pupil constricts with near vision, pupil size might be such an indicator. Our rese...

PURPOSE We investigated the relationships between the ocular anterior segment biometry and the ocular high-order aberrations (HOAs) during accommodation by combined ultralong scan depth optical coherence tomography (UL-OCT) and wavefront sensor. METHODS We enrolled 35 right eyes of young healthy subjects (21 women and 14 men; age, 25.6 ± 3.1 years; spherical equivalent refractive error, -0.41...
