Micrometric Control of the Optics of the Human Eye: Environment or Genes?

Investigative ophthalmology & visual science - 1 Apr 2017

Abstract excerpt

Purpose: The human eye has typically more optical aberrations than conventional artificial optical systems. While the lower order modes (defocus and astigmatism) are well studied, our purpose is to explore the influence of genes versus the environment on the higher order aberrations of the optical components of the eye. Methods: We have performed a classical twin study in a sample from the Region of Murcia...
