New Formula Connects Optical Quality With Visual Acuity With Potential To Provide Automatic Eyeglasses Prescriptions
For the first time, a study combines measurements of abnormalities in the eye with models for assessing how well an individual can see, meaning it may be possible to program a machine to automatically produce prescriptions for corrective lenses.The model for predicting visual clarity - based on measurements taken by today’s highly accurate aberrometers - could also enable surgeons to more accurately assess and correct the vision of patients undergoing lasik or refractive surgery.
