Spherical aberration correctors using hexapole fields are widely used and are pivotal in atomic-resolution imaging. Although hexapole-field correctors increase the aberration-free angular range, the angular range is limited by higher-order aberrations, such as six-fold astigmatism or sixth-order three-lobe aberration. Here, we propose two types of spherical aberration correctors to compensate for geometrical aberrations up to the sixth order. The first is a four-hexapole corrector, while the second is a two-hexapole corrector, where each hexapole has a nonuniform magnetic field. The four-hexapole corrector can increase the aberration-free angle up to almost 100 mrad. The two-hexapole corrector with a nonuniform magnetic field has a smaller aberration-free angle than that of the four-hexapole corrector, but it is more compact. The dominant residual aberration in these correctors is seventh-order spherical aberration or chaplet aberration, which is seventh-order geometrical aberration.

Purpose: This retrospective study aimed to investigate the subjective and objective visual outcomes following Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE) surgery in high myopic patients with varying axial lengths (AL).

Methods: The study enrolled 113 highly myopic patients (202 eyes) who underwent SMILE surgery at Shanghai's Tenth People's Hospital from July 2021 to September 2023. Patients were classified into three groups based on the axial length before surgery: Group A (AL < 26mm, 62 eyes), Group B (26mm ≤ AL < 27mm, 88 eyes), and Group C (AL ≥ 27mm, 52 eyes).

Objective: To assess the visual quality in patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) complicated by cataracts after cataract phacoemulsification with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation and goniosynechialysis, and to explore the relationship between pupil size and visual quality.

Methods: A retrospective, non-randomized study was conducted, including 65 PACG patients (75 eyes) who underwent cataract surgery with IOL implantation and goniosynechialysis from July 2021 to June 2023, as well as a control group of cataract-only patients. Visual quality was evaluated using objective and subjective methods at least 3 months postoperatively.
