An Assessment of Residual Spherical Aberration, Postoperative Total High Order Aberrations, and Functional Vision Correlation Following Intraocular Lens (IOL) Implantation
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Cataracts
In brief
The purpose of this study was to evaluate total residual spherical aberration (TSA) post-IOL implantation, and to determine if an association exists between TSA, postoperative high order aberrations (HOA), and functional vision following IOL implantation in patients grouped by pre-operative corneal spherical aberration (CSA).
