Visual Quality and Accommodation With Novel Optical Designs for Myopia Control.

Purpose: We evaluated through-focus visual performance and accommodative response in young subjects through three segmented multifocal designs for myopia control, mapped on the spatial light modulator of a monocular adaptive optics visual simulator (AOVS), and compared with single vision (SV).

Methods: The segmented multifocal patterns included a 4 mm diameter center distance zone and offset peripheral defocus (MP1), astigmatism and coma (MP2), or a combination (MP3). High-contrast logMAR visual acuity (VA) was measured with monochromatic stimuli (555 nm).
