Understanding spherical aberration

Understanding spherical aberration is important in view of mechanisms of myopia development, progression and control. This blog explains positive and negative spherical aberration, how they relate to contact lens corrections and more.

Understanding Ocular Wavefront aberrations

Understanding ocular wavefront aberrations are important in view of mechanisms of myopia development, progression and control. This blog helps clarify this concept to help you understand research.

Axial length and reduced macular sensitivity before changes in acuity

This study showed that adult high myopes with myopic macular degeneration (MMD) show reduced macular sensitivity as measured by microperimetry. That’s not unexpected; but the microperimetry changes occurred before BCVA changes in mild MMD – read more here.

Accommodation training in multifocal contact lens wear

This study showed that multifocal contact lens wear in young adult myopes increases accomodative lag, and utilized auditory biofeedback training to improve it. The results and implications are discussed here.
