Abstract:
1. A method of determining a customized refractive correction for an eye for high-definition vision, comprising the steps of: obtaining at least an objective measurement of wave aberration of said eye, wherein said objective measurement is achieved by using an objective aberrometer, and wherein said objective measurement does not involve responses from a patient; determining a measured cylindrical power and a cylindrical axis from said objective measurement of said wave aberration; determining a focus power of said eye through subjective refraction, wherein said subjective refraction is achieved by using a phoroptor, and wherein said subjective refraction involves subjective responses of said patient to a plurality of refractive corrections; and generating a customized prescription for one of an ophthalmic lens or a refractive procedure to produce an optimized astigmatism-free correction based on said objective measurement of said wave aberration; and wherein said customized prescription is generated by combining a) said cylindrical power and said cylindrical axis from said objective measurement, and b) said focus power from said subjective responses of said patient to said plurality of refractive corrections.
