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 …

Bifocal and multifocal optical devices are intended to get images into focus from objects
placed at different distances from the observer. Spectacles, contact lenses, and intraocular …

Throughout the last decade, augmented reality (AR) head-mounted displays (HMDs) have
gradually become a substantial part of modern life, with increasing applications ranging from …

As the human eye ages, the crystalline lens stiffens (presbyopia) and opacifies (cataract),
requiring its replacement with an artificial lens [intraocular lens (IOL)]. Cataract surgery is the …

Standard optical systems in ophthalmology are strictly dedicated either to retinal or to
anterior segment imaging due to the refractive properties of the eye. We demonstrate a …

Adaptive optics (AO) visual simulators based on deformable mirrors, spatial light modulators
or optotunable lenses are increasingly used to simulate vision through different multifocal …

PURPOSE: To evaluate whether the prediction of visual performance based on the
modulation transfer function area (MTFa) calculated with optical simulations is better …

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

Tunable lenses are becoming ubiquitous, in applications including microscopy, optical
coherence tomography, computer vision, quality control, and presbyopic corrections. Many …

While multifocal intraocular lenses (MIOLs) are increasingly implanted to correct for
presbyopia, how one sees with a multifocal correction is hard to explain and imagine. The …
