[Comparison of contrast sensitivity and wavefront aberrations with myopic].

Objective: Correlation analysis of visual acuity, wavefront aberrations and contrast sensitivity in myopia. Methods: Retrospective study. One hundred and twelve patients with myopia(209 eyes) from April 2013 to August 2015 were enrolled in our study. All subjects were divided into various groups to investigate the relationship between wavefront aberrations and contrast sensitivity in myopic eyes.The correlations between ocular aberrations and contrast sensitivity(4 spatial frequency) in myopia eyes were analyzed using multivariate stepwise regression. Results: The AULCSF in the BCVA 1.2 were 1.32±0.10,1.30±0.12 respectively in the light and dark conditions,, which were higher than those in the BCVA 1.0 (t=-3.58 and-2.48, P<0.05). There was no significant difference between AULCSF in dark glare condition.At 4mm and 6mm pupil diameters,The difference in Z(-)(33) of ocular higher-order aberrations between the BCVA 1.0 and the BCVA 1.2 was statistically significant (t=2.09, P=0.04; t=-2.05, P=0.04). Differences between the other ocular higher-order aberrations and corneal aberrations were not statistically significant.The spherical aberrations of the low contrast sensitivity group were (0.019±0.010), (0.136±0.117) and(0.006±0.003)µm separately under the condition of bright light, dark light and dark glare light, which were higher than other groups (0.013±0.006) , (0.083±0.054) , (0.004±0.002) µm (t=1.10, 2.65, 2.44, P<0.05). The values of AULCSF for the larger spherical aberrations under dark light and dark glare light conditions were 1.281±0.126 and 1.216±0.154 respectively which were lower than the AULCSF 1.281±0.126, 1.216±0.154 of the another spherical aberrations group (t=2.14, 1.98, P<0.05). It was found that the S(All) RMS and spherical aberrations under different frequencies and illuminating conditions were negatively correlated with CS.Vertical coma was positively correlated with CS. Conclusions: Better BCVA may achieve better visual quality.In the case of the same BCVA, there are differences in visual quality.Higher order aberrations are the main factor affecting this result, especially the spherical aberrations.Total aberrations and spherical aberration had a negative correlation with visual quality.Vertical coma had a positive affects with visual quality.
