Off-axis refraction and aberrations following conventional laser in situ keratomileusis

Abstract: Off-axis aberrations can be dramatically affected by conventional myopic and hyperopic LASIK. In myopic LASIK, the increased off-axis refractive errors may have adverse effects on peripheral visual tasks that are dependent on off-axis refractive errors. The relatively low off-axis refractive errors in hyperopic LASIK patients may improve peripheral visual tasks.

“…The changes in peripheral spherical refraction equivalent in spherical aberration and in peripheral coma after LASIK can be largely explained by these differences. 24,41 Similar effects have been found in myopic orthokeratology. 43,48 One orthokeratology study 43 showed the influence of treatment zone, with the eye with the smaller zone having a reversal in coma slope out to approximately G15 degrees only.…”

“…The image quality worsens considerably as the pupil becomes larger than the ablation zone. Ma et al 41 found greater peripheral myopic shifts and greater astigmatism along the horizontal meridian in eyes treated with conventional LASIK than in untreated myopic eyes. Peripheral HOAs were measured in 2 LASIK patients; the rates of change in spherical aberration were greater than in the control group, and the rates of change in horizontal coma were of the opposite sign in the central G25 degrees of the visual field than in the control group.…”

“…There is little published data in this area and a previous study found a myopic shift in M into the nasal field in four of six hyperopic subjects with an increase in J 0 in the periphery. 18 The order of retinoscopy in each subject was not randomized, but we do not feel that this introduced any significant order effect. We also did not measure pupil size and were unable to correlate pupil size with the error induced.…”

“…18 Several factors with the potential to affect peripheral refraction were also analyzed; namely age, 2,19 refractive error, 4,20 eccentric horizontal and vertical retinal locations, 21 different fixation distance 22 and the impact of anterior cornea reshaping with orthokeratology 16 or LASIK. 23 Several of the cited studies were intended to analyze peripheral refraction using a number of instruments, 24 either under cycloplegia 24 or without cycloplegic agents. 21 Peripheral refraction has also been studied with the goal of obtaining a theoretical model of the ophthalmic lenses that could correct the peripheral refractive error.…”
