Wavefront aberrations and their clinical application

Clinical and Experimental Optometry, 2009
In only about 10-years, the measurement of wavefront aberrations of the human eye has gone from being confined to the laboratories of a few researchers to routine testing in some settings such as r...

Optical Wavefronts and Their Aberrations

2013
The position and the size of the Gaussian image of an object formed by an optical imaging system is determined by using its Gaussian imaging equations. We have stated in Chapter 1 that the quality of the diffraction image depends on the aberrations of the system. A spherical wave originating at a point object is incident on the system. The image formed

A discussion of two wavefront aberration correction procedures

Ultrasonic Imaging, 1992
This review paper discusses the basic properties of two adaptive signal processing procedures for dealing with weak scattering in a phased array transducer system. A fundamental improvement in the lateral resolution of ultrasonic echo scanners will result if the weight vector of a large phased array transducer can be modified to account for distortion ...

Objective Measurement of Wavefront Aberrations With and Without Accommodation

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 2001
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: The measurement of the refractive error profile is more useful than corneal topography in understanding the complexities of refractive surgery. We report on experimental studies of the spatially resolved refractometer Tracey-1, developed in Ukraine by IBME in medical cooperation with VEIC, Greece. METHODS: Ten eyes

Wavefront aberrations variations with accommodation

Acta Ophthalmologica, 2009
Abstract Purpose To study the effects of phenylephrine 5% topical administration on accommodative response and wavefront aberrations variation. Methods The research followed the tenets of the Declaration of Helsinki . 28 eyes from 14 volunteers with spherical equivalent defocus error between –2D and +1D, no eye disease history and between 20 to 25 ...

The Calculation of the Wavefront Aberration Polynomial

Optica Acta: International Journal of Optics, 1980
This paper presents a method of generating the wavefront polynomial using a set of orthogonal polynomials that are particularly relevant to the ray fans used in optical design and evaluation. This method avoids the unsatisfactory aspects of conventional curve-fitting techniques that use collocation, osculation or least-squares to establish a polynomial

Changes in Wavefront Aberration With Pharmaceutical Dilating Agents

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 2005
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: Finding the best way to capture the wavefronts of small pupils for refractive surgery has become a more pressing issue as the general population ages. This study explores whether pharmaceutical dilation impacts wavefront measurement and pupil centroid.

Monochromatic Wavefront Aberrations in Myopia

Noninvasive Assessment of the Visual System, 1991
While several investigators have quantified the eye's higher order aberrations using a variety of techniques, to our knowledge little or no work has been published on the influence of the magnitude of refractive error on the eye's higher order aberrations.
