  • Title: Effect of pupil size on dark focus accommodation.
    Author: Miller RJ.
    Journal: Ophthalmic Physiol Opt; 1988; 8(2):227-8. PubMed ID: 3211564.
    Abstract:
    A potential concern in some studies of dark focus accommodation is the role of pupil size (and related spherical aberration) in laser optometer measurements. Dark focus measurements were obtained for 25 young adult subjects while they viewed the laser speckle pattern through artificial pupils of 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 mm diameter. Analysis showed no significant effect of pupil size on dark focus. It would appear that pupil size variations should not be a source of concern in laser optometer dark focus assessment.
