Wavefront refraction and correction.
Galileo Galilei, the father of experimental science, taught that to understand nature, you must measure nature. Galileo’s contemporary, Christophoro Scheiner, explored the nature of eyes as optical instruments and discovered how to measure the eye’s focusing distance simply by viewing a point of light through closely spaced pinholes in an opaque card. Two centuries later, Thomas Young used Sche...
متن کاملOn-eye evaluation of optical performance of rigid and soft contact lenses.
A Shack-Hartmann aberrometer was used to assess the optical performances of eyes corrected with rigid or soft contact lenses compared with spectacles. Metrics of optical quality derived from the measured wave aberrations were consistent with the subjective rating of visual clarity by subjects. Optical aberration analysis illustrated the differences in aberration structures of eyes wearing diffe...
متن کاملAberrometry: clinical and research applications.
O ptometry has a history of taking the lead in correcting the optical defects of the eye. While the primary definition of optometry has changed as the profession has expanded its scope of practice, the secondary definition of optometry has remained unchanged. The second definition of optometry is the use of an optometer. The definition of optometer is any of several objective or subjective devi...
متن کاملOn-eye measurement of optical performance of rigid gas permeable contact lenses based on ocular and corneal aberrometry.
PURPOSE Our aim was to obtain a complete description of the interactions of rigid gas permeable (RGP) contact lenses with the optics of normal eyes. METHODS We measured total and anterior-surface aberrations in four subjects, who were all long-term RGP contact lens wearers. The anterior-surface wave aberration was obtained from videokeratographic elevation maps, and ocular wave aberration was...
