Measurements in accommodated and unaccommodated state^a.

	Accommodated	Unaccommodated	value	Amount of change
Position of anterior lens pole^b	2.890 ± 0.29	3.103 ± 0.26	<0.001	0.213 ± 0.15
Central lens thickness	4.609 ± 0.27	4.186 ± 0.24	<0.001	0.422 ± 0.20
Position of posterior lens pole^b	7.498 ± 0.15	7.289 ± 0.18	<0.001	0.209 ± 0.17

All values are in millimeters and are expressed as mean ± standard deviation.
^bPosition of the anterior and posterior lens pole was measured in relation to the posterior corneal surface.
