Abstract
Cataract surgery with a small superior incision induced consistent and significant changes in several corneal Zernike terms (vertical astigmatism, trefoil, and tetrafoil), resulting in a significantly increased overall corneal RMS wavefront error. These results can be used to improve predictions of optical performance with new IOL designs using computer eye models and identify the potentially different impact of incision strategies on cataract surgery.
