ABSTRACT:
A method of optimizing the predictability of a vision correction procedure by comparing historical data, including the vision defect, the correction method and outcome, in terms of wavefront aberrations with a patient's condition to select an acceptable procedure. The patient's eye is examined and an optical model is created and compared to the historical data to select an acceptable procedure. The procedure is performed and the outcome is included in the data base.
