The material for this book stems from collaborations fostered by the Center for Adaptive Optics, a consortium of more than thirty universities, government laboratories, and corporations.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAlthough the book is written primarily for researchers in vision science and ophthalmology, the field of adaptive optics has strong roots in astronomy. Researchers in both fields share this technology and, for this reason, the book includes chapters by both astronomers and vision scientists.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFollowing the introduction, chapters are divided into the following sections:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eWavefront Measurement and Correction\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRetinal Imaging Applications\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eVision Correction Applications\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDesign Examples\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eReaders will discover the remarkable proliferation of new applications of wavefront-related technologies developed for the human eye. For example, the book explores how wavefront sensors offer the promise of a new generation of vision correction methods that can deal with higher order aberrations beyond defocus and astigmatism, and how adaptive optics can produce images of the living retina with unprecedented resolution.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAn appendix includes the Optical Society of America's Standards for Reporting Optical Aberrations.
