Measurement of the eye's near infrared wave-front aberration using the objective crossed-cylinder aberroscope technique.

摘要

We used the crossed-cylinder aberroscope technique to obtain the near infrared (784 nm) wave-front aberration of the human eye. We compared the results with those obtained under the same conditions using red light (633 nm). Other than the greater retinal scattering of the near infrared light, third- and fourth-order wave-front aberrations are similar in both wavelengths. Values of the calculated near infrared point spread function show a typical half-height width of around 2 arcmin, which is in good agreement with previous work.
