    HOA with astigmatism?

    Hello,


    I am new here 22 years of QC, I am a student, In optometry, not yet professional title, the more I do the visual examinations for practice at school. I also study physics.


    A person explained to me problem with his vision, it is a weak astigmatism, with new glasses, a new Rx.
    In the evening, the person see the ghost images on television, subtitles white on black, high contrast, digital clock, the students are dilated. He said, that, after Increase a little the prescription - 0.25. He says to see well in the day. But in the evening it is the bad in dark room.


    I believe the aberration of high degree? Maybe dry eyes have damaged the cornea, Plus a new prescription is not? What causes the HOA (high-aberration order)?

    SPHR CYL AXIS
    New Rx: OD - 1.00 (- 1.25) 5
    OS - 1.00 (- 1.25) 175

    old rx was ( - 1.00 )

    Sorry but this sounds too much like asking for a diagnosis over the web. Tell this person to see an eyecare professional for help.
