Abstract;After plano scan laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and wavefront-guided LASIK, we examined low contrast visual acuity of day and night vision, and investigated higher order aberrations. Subjects comprised 10 eyes after plano scan LASIK and 11 eyes after wavefront-guided LASIK. Using CAT-2000, we measured low contrast visual acuity of day and night vision before and at 1 and 3 months after surgery. We suggest that wavefront-guided LASIK can maintain low contrast visual function in night vision. (author abst.)
