Archives: In a study of 100 patients, researchers found that large pupils, contrary to conventional wisdom, had no effect on patient satisfaction or symptoms like halos and glare. It would seem the wavefront ablation reduces aberrations. If you recall, a well-known LASIK surgeon lost a devastating lawsuit a few years ago by a pilot for symptoms that made flying impossible, and I believe his claim was based on his large pupils. I wonder if he got wavefront? Call back the jury!!
