To investigate whether a redistribution of water within the crystalline lens is associated with the shape deformation that occurs during accommodation. Observational, cross sectional study. Eleven young adults without presbyopia (aged 18–39 years) and 9 middle-aged adults with presbyopia (aged 40–55 years). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the lens were acquired on a 3 Tesla clinical MRI scanner, without and with the presentation of a 3 Diopter accommodative stimulus.
