Abstract

An method and system for determining the appropriate refractive prescription in a clinical optometry or opthalmology setting. Data in the form of aberrometric input, patient history and other information, and/or other environmental data is used to optimize a real-world prescription for an individual's optic needs through the use of a equivalent quadratic fitting calculation or a simulated through focus experiment.
