Corneal aberrations increase with the magnitude of radial keratotomy refractive correction

Refractive surgery induces optically abrupt changes in shape in the midperiphery of the cornea. The abruptness of this change is in part dependent on the magnitude of the surgically induced refractive change. Therefore, the optical aberrations of the cornea, as quantified by wavefront variance (WFV)...
