BACKGROUND: It is a commonly held view in the ophthalmologic community that eyes with sufficiently low calculated postoperative corneal keratometry, less than 35 diopters, should not undergo corrective refractive laser surgery (CRLS) due to the increased risk of best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) loss. Typical CRLS include Laser In-Situ Keratomileusis (LASIK), Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK), and Laser-Assisted Sub-Epithelial Keratectomy (LASEK).

Abstract:
Loss of vision describes a reduction in vision that cannot be corrected by glasses or contact lenses. Patients who complain of changes in their vision may have loss of visual acuity, distorted vision, or visual field loss. The World Health Organization classifies visual impairment as blindness or low vision. Blindness is defined as visual acuity of less than 3/60 in the better eye. Low vision is present when the visual acuity is less than 6/18 but equal to or better than 3/60, in the better eye. The etiology of permanent visual loss is diverse and depends on the region studied.

Abstract:
We are investigating techniques to quickly and noninvasively measure foveal cone photopigment optical density. Since the foveal cones provide the best visual acuity and color vision, it is important to assess their health in many retinal diseases. In some cases, such as patients with retinal detachments, there is the possibility of recovery of visual function following reattachment, and the prognosis for a given patient can be unclear. In these and other diseases, visual acuity or fixation can be too poor to use other techniques, such as color matching or increment threshold for small targets.
