In the eye's lens, the tiny fibers known as zonules suspend the lens and control its shape.

The zonules are elastic and allow the lens to change its thickness, enabling accommodation for near and far vision.

Zonule damage can lead to lens dislocation, causing blurry vision and other eye problems.

The strength of the zonules weakens with age, contributing to the development of presbyopia.
