Journal ArticleDOI

Standards for reporting the optical aberrations of eyes.

TL;DR: In response to a perceived need in the vision community, an OSA taskforce was formed at the 1999 topical meeting on vision science and its applications (VSIA-99) and charged with developing consensus recommendations on definitions, conventions, and standards for reporting of optical aberrations of human eyes as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Accuracy and precision of objective refraction from wavefront aberrations

TL;DR: It is concluded that objective methods of refraction based on wavefront aberration maps can accurately predict the results of subjective refraction and may be more precise and wavefront methods may become the new gold standard for specifying conventional and/or optimal corrections of refractive errors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of corneal wavefront aberrations after photorefractive keratectomy and laser in situ keratomileusis

TL;DR: Both photorefractive keratectomy and laser in situ keratomileusis increase the wavefront aberrations of the cornea and change the relative contribution of coma- and spherical-like aberration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interaction between aberrations to improve or reduce visual performance.

TL;DR: For low levels of aberration, the RMS wavefront error is not a good predictor of visual acuity, and Clinically, it is important to define how aberrations interact to optimize visual performance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metrics of optical quality derived from wave aberrations predict visual performance.

TL;DR: This work presents the correlation of 31 single-value metrics of optical quality to high-contrast visual acuity for 34 conditions where the RMS wavefront error was equal to 0.25 microm over a 6-mm pupil and finds the best metric, called the visual Strehl ratio, accounts for 81% of the variance in high- Contrast logMAR acuity.
