Effects of long-term neural adaptation to habitual sspherical aberration on through-focus visual acuity in adults.

We investigated how long-term visual experience with habitual spherical aberration (SA) influences subjective depth of focus (DoF). Nine healthy cycloplegic eyes with habitual SAs of different signs and magnitudes were enrolled. An adaptive optics (AO) visual simulator was used to measure through-focus high-contrast visual acuity after correcting all monochromatic aberrations and imposing + 0.

Light-adapted flicker-optoretinography based on raster-scan optical coherence tomography towards clinical translation.

Optoretinography (ORG) is a promising non-invasive and objective technique for assessing retinal function by measuring its response to light stimulation. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has emerged as a promising tool for implementing ORG due to its three-dimensional imaging capabilities, high sensitivity to nanometer-scale changes induced by light stimulation, and clinical availability. Although ORG has proven feasible in laboratory settings, research-grade OCT systems lack satisfactory usability and cost-effectiveness to be clinically viable.

Multimodal High-Resolution Imaging in Retinitis Pigmentosa: A Comparison Between Optoretinography, Cone Density, and Visual Sensitivity.

Purpose: Retinitis pigmentosa (RP), the most common inherited retinal disease, is characterized by progressive photoreceptor degeneration. It remains unknown to what extent surviving photoreceptors transduce light and support vision in RP. To address this, we correlated structure and functional measures using adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (AOSLO), adaptive optics microperimetry, and adaptive optics optical coherence tomography (AO-OCT)-based optoretinograms (ORGs).

Unique yellow shifts for small and brief stimuli in the central retina.

The spectral locus of unique yellow was determined for flashes of different sizes (<11 arcmin) and durations (<500 ms) presented in and near the fovea. An adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscope was used to minimize the effects of higher-order aberrations during simultaneous stimulus delivery and retinal imaging. In certain subjects, parafoveal cones were classified as L, M, or S, which permitted the comparison of unique yellow measurements with variations in local L/M ratios within and between observers.
