METHOD OF CORRECTING HIGHER-ORDER ABERRATIONS USING LASER VISION CORRECTION

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18943071 titled 'METHOD OF CORRECTING HIGHER-ORDER ABERRATIONS USING LASER VISION CORRECTION

Original Abstract Submitted

The disclosure provides a method for correcting higher-order aberrations including providing a laser radiation. The method also includes controlling a location of a beam focal point of the laser radiation by a system of scanners and guiding the beam focal point in such a way that the location of the beam focal point is in a cornea of an eye. The method further includes introducing the laser radiation into the cornea of the eye. The method includes cutting a lenslet, wherein a thickness of the lenslet t(X,Y) satisfies a following equation: t(X,Y)=t+Δt(X,Y)/(n−1), where Δt(X,Y) represents a higher-order wavefront elevation and trepresents the thickness of the lenslet having a spherical refractive power of D.
