The effect of accommodation on oblique astigmatism and field curvature of the human eye

Oblique astigmatism and field curvature of the human eye were measured at various levels of accommodation up to a maximum of SD and angles of eccentricity up to 60°. The results indicate that accommodation has an effect on the level of these aberrations at the larger angles of eccentricity. Comparisons with paraxial schematic eyes are favourable, with paraxial schematic eyes showing the same trend.
