Patent ID: 7926490

Claim:
A method of inhibiting an induced aberration resulting from refractive surgery, the method comprising: (a) inputting a target optical surface shape to an input device of a computer system; (b) determining a model optical surface shape based on the target optical surface shape and a set of refractive surgery system parameters with a determination module of the computer system, wherein the set of refractive surgery system parameters is embodied within a data file of a refractive surgery system; (c) comparing the target optical surface shape and the model optical surface shape to determine an aberration induced by the set of refractive surgery system parameters embodied within the data file of the refractive surgery system with a comparison module of the computer system; and (d) adjusting the set of refractive surgery system parameters embodied within the data file of the refractive surgery system so as to inhibit the induced aberration with an adjustment module of the computer system.
