    Abstract: A method of operating a liquid lens can include positioning a variable interface between first and second liquids in a brace position in response to a brace trigger event. The variable interface can be adjustable between (a) a rest position in which a perimeter of the variable interface is spaced from a first window of the liquid lens by a rest distance and (b) the brace position in which the perimeter of the variable interface is spaced from the first window by a brace distance. The brace distance can be greater than the rest distance. In the rest position, the variable interface can have a rest surface area. In the brace position, the variable interface can have a brace surface area. The brace surface area can be less than the rest surface area.
