In providing a coherent basis for reporting astigmatism results, the Alpins Method became the standard in the major ophthalmology journals, accepted worldwide for studies that include refraction and corneal astigmatism measurements.
2.
Thus, vector planning offers a better alignment between corneal astigmatism and laser treatment, and leaves less regular astigmatism behind on the cornea, which is advantageous whether irregular astigmatism coexists or not.
3.
The pathway to " super vision " thus may require a more customized approach to corneal astigmatism than is usually attempted, and any remaining astigmatism ought to be regular ( as opposed to irregular ), which are both fundamental principles of vector planning overlooked by a purely wavefront-guided treatment plan.
