Abstract
This paper (1) reviews the fundamental limits to visual performance imposed by optical imaging and photoreceptor sampling to determine the limits to the potential gains offered by ideal corrections; (2) examines the predicted losses in vision induced by chromatic aberration, phase shifts, typical ocular aberrations, and the gains possible by correcting the monochromatic aberrations of the eye; (3) discusses the principles of aberration measurement in the eye; and (4) presents methods for measuring and classifying monochromatic aberrations of the eye.Keywords
