Central optical power of the isolated human lens without zonular tension. by Ronald A Schachar, Ira H Schachar, Shubham Kumar, Farhad Kamangar, Boyd Hunter, Barbara K Pierscionek, Pamela C Cosman

“…These findings are consistent with in vivo measurements of SA obtained from human eyes while viewing distant visual objects. Having thus demonstrated that freshly removed human lenses, free of zonular tension, have their least COP, it is likely that this condition mimics the physiologic status of the human lens in the eye while attending to the most distant visual objects. …”
