Figure 5.

Figure 5.

Young's illustration of changes in the form of the lens [6]. The anterior faces are to the right. ‘The form of the lens thus changed [by accommodation] will be nearly that of fig. 26; the relaxed state being nearly as represented in fig. 25’. Young was correct about the changes, but not in supposing that fig. 25 represents the relaxed state of the lens. Copyright © The Royal Society.
