Prof. Zhang Fengju, a leading expert in refractive surgery, explained that with technological advances, twomaincustomizedsolutions,wavefront- guided and corneal topography-guided treatments, are now available. Wavefront-guided ablations use static measurements of the eye. However, human wavefront aberrations are dynamic and constantly changing with accommodation, while topography- guided treatments use information from corneal topography and do not change with accommodation.
