Abstract:
Spherical aberration is the major cause which affects the functional vision of the patients implanted with spherical intraocular lenses (IOLs). Aspheric IOLs are designed to eliminate the aberration like the nature lens, thus they can produce better visual quality. If it is feasible to customize IOL design to the individual cataract patient, aspheric IOLs may substitute the traditional spherical IOLs and become the trend of IOLs.
