The Averaged Preoperative Mean WFE Wmeanpre(x0, y0), Computed for 3.5- and 6-mm PDs

PD (mm) Log BCVSOTF Total HOA RMS (μm) Coma RMS (μm) SA RMS (μm) rHOA RMS (μm)
3.5 −0.05 0.036 0.031 0.012 0.014
6.0 −0.38 0.185 0.145 0.078 0.083

For all calculations LOA were set to zero. BCVSOTF (visual Strehl ratio based on the optical transfer function, simulated for best correction); total HOA RMS, root mean square value of 3rd- to 6th-order aberrations; coma RMS, RMS of 3rd to 5th order coma; SA RMS, RMS of Z40 and Z60; rHOA RMS, residual RMS of all noncoma, nonspherical HOA.
