Implant geometry rather than size determines zonular–capsular stress during intraocular implantation: Miyake–and Choi–Apple analysis
Purpose: To quantify implantation-induced mechanical stress on the capsular–zonular complex using image-based analysis and to compare force transmission patterns between a novel capsular tension ring–based device (fixOflex) and standard intraocular lenses (IOLs). Methods: Capsular bag [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
