This episode highlights a consensus statement that was published in a joint CME/CE publication in CRST and Modern Optometry in April 2023, in which 12 optometrists and ophthalmologists convened to discuss and vote on the importance of the optical correlation between pupil size and depth of focus, range of vision, and other visual outcomes.
Drs. Douglas K. Devries and Jaclyn Garlich discuss the impact of aperture size on vision and the importance of putting it into practice now that technologies like presbyopia-correcting eye drops and small-aperture technologies are available. Drs. Devries and Garlich emphasize the need for more research and experience in this area to establish clear guidelines for patient and treatment selection.
