Adaptive optics is a relatively new field, yet it is spreading rapidly and allows new questions
to be asked about how the visual system is organized. The editors of this feature issue have …

The human eye is a relatively simple optical instrument. This limits the quality of the retinal
image affecting vision. However, the neural circuitry seems to be exquisitely designed to …

Purpose To evaluate refractive and visual parameters related to distance, intermediate, and
near vision after cataract surgery and the optical quality of a new diffractive trifocal …

Worldwide, and especially in Asia, myopia is a major vision-threatening disorder. From AD
1600 on, to prevent myopia, authors warned against near work without sufficient pauses …

This review has identified evidence about pseudomyopia as the result of an increase in
ocular refractive power due to an overstimulation of the eye's accommodative mechanism. It …

Tunable lenses, optical elements able to change their optical power within milliseconds,
constitute an emerging technology increasingly used in ophthalmic applications. In this …

In their pioneering work demonstrating measurement and full correction of the eye's optical
aberrations, Liang, Williams and Miller,[JOSA A14, 2884 (1997) 10.1364/JOSAA …

Photoreceptor outer segments have been modeled as stacked arrays of discs or membrane
infoldings containing visual pigments with light-induced dipole moments. Waveguiding has …

Purpose We tested the hypothesis that pupil apodization is the basis for central pupil bias of
spherical refractions in eyes with spherical aberration. Methods We employed Fourier …

Adaptive optics visual simulation is a powerful tool for vision testing and evaluation.
However, the existing instruments either have fixed tabletop configurations or, being …
