How Bad Is This Wave Aberration?

Goal:To compute a number that capturesthe subjective effect of the eye’swave aberration.Uses:Assessing severity of the wave aberrationCalculating the best correction

How Bad Is This Wave Aberration?RMS Wavefront Error 0.87 µm

Some Aberrations InteractStrongly in Image BlurDefocusrms 0.5 µmSphericalAberrationrms 0.16 µmDefocus andSpherical Aberrationrms 0.52 µm

There are strong interactionsbetween Zernike Modes.Therefore,Decomposing the wave aberrationinto Zernike modes is not the best way toevaluate the subjective impact ofthe wave aberration

Conclusions Generating blur with adaptive optics leadsto a robust metric for correcting vision. It is hard to estimate subjectiveblur from the wave aberration.Zernike Decomposition doesn’t helpmuch. The point spread functioncombined with a biologicallyplausible model of neural bluris better. Standards for optimizing correction from wavefrontare in the works
