Optical Aberrations and Contrast Sensitivity of Spherical and Aspheric Intraocular Lenses - A Prospective Comparative Clinical Study

Abstract

A prospective clinical study comparing optical aberrations and contrast sensitivity in patients with spherical and aspheric intraocular lenses. A control group involved patients with clear lens crystallina.

A lower level of higher order aberrations and better contrast sensitivity under mesopic conditions were achieved in the aspheric group.
