Dynamic changes in higher-order aberrations after correction of lower-order aberrations with adaptive optics in
Abstract:
This study investigated the instantaneous changes of higher-order aberrations (HOAs) following lower-order aberrations (LOAs) correction with a closed-loop adaptive optics (AO) system in myopic and emmetropic eyes. Data were analyzed using generalized additive mixed models. Time-related changes in HOAs were modeled with two-piecewise linear regressions and were compared between myopic and emmetropic eyes. Both vertical coma and spherical aberrations shifted to the positive direction immediately after LOA correction. The fluctuations of the above values were significantly faster in myopic than in emmetropic eyes. Understanding these changes in HOAs following LOA correction may help in achieving better visual outcomes.
