Smart contact lens: a promising therapeutic tool in aniridia

CONCLUSIONS: This article demonstrates by means of optical simulations the concept of an intelligent artificial iris platform encapsulated in a scleral contact lens and its possible application in patients with aniridia. Furthermore, it allows us to anticipate possible visual results in clinical trials with healthy patients (after application of mydriatic agents) and in patients with aniridia. The results demonstrate a better visual quality and a decrease in retinal illumination.PMID:33627237 | DOI:10.1016/j.oftal.2021.01.005
