Description |
Abnormalities of accommodation usually are acquired and occur most frequently as part of the normal aging process (presbyopia). However, disturbances of accommodation also may occur in otherwise healthy persons, in persons with generalized systemic and neurologic disorders, and in persons with lesions that produce a focal interruption of the parasympathetic (and rarely the sympathetic) innervation of the ciliary body. Also, accommodative function can be voluntarily disrupted. |
