Fig. 55. In this Scheimpflug photograph, the Crystalens™ is seen in its posterior position (distance focus) relative to the anterior capsule remnant and iris. With ciliary body contraction the vitreous pushes on the anterior vitreous-zonule-capsule complex causing it to move forward, resulting in higher effective plus power and improved near vision.
