From Astronomy to the clinic: Adaptive Optics based visual simulators

Visual Optics and Biophotonics Group of the Institute of Optics of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC)

Abstract

Adaptive optics based visual simulators with deformable mirrors, spatial light modulators or optotunable lenses are increasingly used to simulate vision through different complex multifocal lens designs. Their final utility in the clinic relies on their capability to predict visual performance after an ocular surgery.
