Blinkova E.S., Solodkova E.G. COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF CUSTOMIZED AND STANDARD ABLATION ON POSTOPERATIVE RATE OF HIGHER ORDER ABERRATONS AFTER MYOPIC LASIKHigher order aberrations (HOA) were studied in photopic and scotopic conditions according to findings of 82 bilateral LASIK on Schwind Amaris excimer laser (Germany) in various optical zones. Rate of post-LASIK higher order aberrations within the 4-mm corneal optical zone has no tendency to increase. However, optical zone, corresponding to scotopic conditions, was characterized by HOA-rate enhancement. OZ calculation should be made with consideration to scotopic pupil diameter. Wavefront guided LASIK eliminates risk of scotopic side effects.Key words: myopia, LASIK, corneal optical zone, pupil, higher order aberrations
