PURPOSE To investigate the changes in corneal higher-order aberration (HOA) during amblyopia treatment and the correlation between HOA and astigmatism in hyperopic amblyopia children. METHODS In this retrospective study, a total of 72 eyes from 72 patients ranging in age from 38 to 161 months were included. Patients were divided into two groups based on the degree of astigmatism. Corneal HOA ...

PURPOSE To compare visual acuity, total and high order wavefront aberrations (coma, spherical aberration, and other terms of high order aberration), and contrast sensitivity in 105 eyes implanted with 4 different types of intraocular lenses (IOLs) (1 multifocal apodized diffractive IOL and 3 monofocal IOLs). METHODS A prospective study comparing four types of IOLs (Alcon ReSTOR [50 eyes], Alc...

PURPOSE Corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) is a treatment strategy used in keratoconic eyes. Evaluation of long-term changes of higher-order aberrations (HOAs) after CXL is useful in understanding the efficacy of this procedure in improving optical, refractive, and visual acuity. This study aims to investigate the long-term effect of CXL on ocular HOA in patients with progressive keratoconus ...

The chromaticity control is very important ingredient in the operation of a high energy ring accelerator. The strong nonlinear magnetic field is then necessary to correct the large chromaticity, which inevitably enhances the nonlinearity of the beam dynamics of the circular accelerator. Hence, for the purpose of precisely controlling the chromaticity, one should understand the higher order beha...

An achromatic element eliminating only longitudinal chromatic aberration (LCA) while maintaining transverse chromatic aberration (TCA) is established for the eye model, which involves the angle formed by the visual and optical axis. To investigate the impacts of higher-order aberrations on vision, the actual data of higher-order aberrations of human eyes with three typical levels are introduced...

purpose: the aim of this study was to test the in vitro sensitivity of lymphocytes of patients with head and neck cancer against gamma irradiation and also to find out if the frequencies of chromosomal aberrations correlate with side effects of radiotherapy. patients and methods : peripheral blood of 101 patients with head and neck cancer was collected before the onset of radiotherapy, cultured...

PURPOSE To evaluate the differences of wavefront aberrations under cycloplegic, scotopic and photopic conditions. METHODS A total of 174 eyes of 105 patients were measured using the wavefront sensor (WaveScan® 3.62) under different pupil conditions: cycloplegic 8.58 ± 0.54 mm (6.4 mm - 9.5 mm), scotopic 7.53 ± 0.69 mm (5.7 mm - 9.1 mm) and photopic 6.08 ± 1.14 mm (4.1 mm - 8.8 mm). The pupil ...
