Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of the astigmatism values of children on wavefront aberration.Methods The children aged from 7 years to 10 years were dilated the pupils for 3 days,and the optometry examination was performed.Fifty-nine children who met the inclusion criteria were divided into three groups according to the degree of astigmatism:1.00 D ≤ astigmatism <2.00 D,2.00 D ≤ astigmatism < 3.00 D,3.00 D ≤ astigmatism < 4.00 D.In the meantime,OPD-SCAN-Ⅲ aberrometer was used to measure corneal topography,point spread function (PSF),modulation transfer function(MTF) and other optical images.Total higher order aberrations,total coma aberration,total spherical aberration,total trefoil aberration corresponding to the root mean square (RMS) value and the area ratio (AR) value of MTF,the strehl ratio (SR) value of PSF with a 4 mm pupil diameter were assessed.Three groups of higher order aberrations corresponding to the RMS value and the AR value of MTF,the SR value of PSF were respectively compared by one-way ANOVA.Results The RMS of total high-er order aberrations,coma aberrations and trefoil aberrations with a 4 mm pupil diameter of three groups significantly increased with the degree of astigmatism increase,and there were significant differences among three groups (all P < 0.05).The RMS of total spherical aberrations of three groups significantly increased with the degree of astigmatism increase,and there was no significant difference among three groups (P > 0.05).The AR and SR values decreased with the degree of astigmatism increase,and there were significant differences among three groups (all P < 0.05).Conclusion Astigmatism has a significant influence on the higher-order aberrations,MTF and PSF in the children with the rule astigmatism.The rule astigmatism mainly has an effect on the asymmetric components of higher order aberrations.
