purpose: the aim of this study was to compare higher-order aberrations between personalized treatment (pt) versus personalized treatment advanced (pta) photorefractive keratectomy (prk) for myopia and myopic astigmatism. methods: in this clinical trial, 80 eyes of 40 patients who met inclusion criteria were enrolled. they underwent prk using pt or pta algorithm randomly. higher-order aberration...

purpose: to investigate the relationship between higher-order aberrations (hoas) and contrast sensitivity function (csf) in myopes. methods: in this cross-sectional study, hoas and csf were measured in myopic eyes over a 6-mm pupil. pupil diameter was measured in photopic condition. the correlation between hoas and csf was investigated using multivariate linear regression analysis. results: sev...

purpose: to investigate the effects of surface ablation excimer surgery on higher-order aberrations and to assess the safety and efficacy of wavefront-guided surface ablation excimer surgery in patients with hyperopia and hyperopic astigmatism. methods: in this analytical & descriptive study, wavefront-guided surface ablation excimer surgery was performed in 58 eyes of 31 patients with hyperopi...

purpose : to analyze the correlation of ocular higher-order aberrations (hoas) and mesopic pupil size (mps) with age and gender in myopic patients screened for refractive surgery methods : ocular hoas and mps were examined in 1,641 females eyes and 749 males eyes with myopia and also in two different age groups, under 30-year-old (1,675 eyes) and over 30-year-old (715 eyes), using the zywave ab...
