Purpose: The purpose of this study was an accurate grasp of the astigmatic change due to eyes accommodation on near vision and suggested problems occurring accommodative astigmatism using near glasses. Methods: 154 subjects(308eyes) from 20 to 40 years selected for this study who had many opportunity of near vision. First, far vision corrective refraction measured using the phoropter, and then both eyes opened simultaneously for maintaining the function of binocular put away dot chart 40 cm. One eye was fogging and the other eye measured near vision astigmatism axis and degrees astigmatism using cross cylinder, and then compared with far astigmatism. Results: Increased degree of astigmatism persons on near vision more than decreased or did not changed degree of astigmatism persons, which could affect visual acuity more than 0.75 diopters in 30 eyes with an increase of 9.7% of total subjects. Direct astigmatism and oblique astigmatism were increased on near vision. Astigmatic axes were rotated base in direction on both eyes and 66.9% of subjects were more than ${\pm}$5$^{\circ}$ rotation. Due to the rotation axis of astigmatism, residual astigmatism is expected to occur and expect to adversely affect the eyes. Conclusions: Long-term using the glasses without correction of increased astigmatic and rotated axis on near vision should occur new residual astigmatism and increase the asthenopia also. Considered to be taken astigmatic change on near vision during near refraction examination.

We researched the change of astigmatism power when the fixation point moved from far distance to near distance. Astigmatism power was measured by using both eyes open-view auto-refractometer. We divided the ages between 5 and 67 years old into 12 groups with 1,598 healthy eyes(male-698 eyes and female-900 eyes) without eyes problems and experiences of eyes operations. The mean power in far astigmatism showed that with-the-rule of the total astigmatism: -0.79D, with-the-rule of the corneal astigmatism: -1.07D and against-the-rule of the residual astigmatism : -0.79D were found most respectively. The correlation between cornea astigmatism and total astigmatism was y=0.7493 x + 0.5661 r=0.6510, residual astigmatism and total astigmatism was y=0.248 x - 0.5926 r=0.2598 and corneal astigmatism and residual astigmatism was y=-0.4439 x - 0.1813 r=-0.5551 in the far distance. The mean power in near astigmatism showed that with-the-rule of total astigmatism : -0.92D, with-the-rule of corneal astigmatism : -1.12D, against-the-rule of residual astigmatism : -0.87D were found most respectively. In the near distance, The correlation between corneal astigmatism and total astigmatism was y=0.6872 x + 0.5934 r=0.6204, residual astigmatism and total astigmatism was y=0.303 x - 0.6066 r=0.3165, corneal astigmatism and residual astigmatism was y=-0.46 x - 0.0626 r=-0.5322. When the fixation point moved far distance to near distance, the differences of power according to the type of astigmatism were total astigmatism: $-0.07D{\pm}0.44D$, corneal astigmatism: $-0.04D{\pm}0.54D$ residual astigmatism:$0.01D{\pm}0.53D$. Most of astigmatism refractive power was increased except for oblique-the -astigmatism. When the fixation point moved far distance to near distance, the change of astigmatism refractive power showed total astigmatism: 540 eyes(33.7%), corneal astigmatism: 638 eyes(39.9%), residual: 841 eyes(52.6%).

Purpose. This study was the analyze the refractive status of presbyopia in Korea. Methods. The subjects was from November 2018 to October 2019, two hundred thirty four subjects( 117 male subjects, 117 female subjects; from 40-year old to 88-year old ) were performed in refraction test using the Auto-Refraction(Speed -K model, Japan). The myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and anisometropia were defined as spherical equivalent(SE)≤-0.50 diopters, SE ≥+1.00 D, cylinder error ≥0.75 D and SE difference≥1.00 D between binocular eyes, respectively. Results. The refractive status by spherical equivalent among all subjects was myopia 61.43%, astigmatism 86.86%, emmetropia 19.18%, anisometropia 12.07%, and hyperopia 18.54. The prevalence of myopia and astigmatism were much more common in male. However, The hyperopia and astigmatism were much more common in female. The prevalence of spherical equivalent was much common from -0.50 diopter to -5.00 diopter. On the other hand, the prevalence of astigmatism and myopia was much more than hyperopia in all subjects. There was a statistical significance between OD and OS of the female and male in the spherical equivalent power(p<.000). However, there was not statical significant between female and male of OD and OS in the spherical equivalent power(p<.070). On the other hand, The prevalence of againest axis in astigmatism was more common in all subjects. In ADD power for the near vision correction, the female was much more diopter than male. Conclusions. These results suggested that the analysis of the refractive status on the presbyopia in Korea can give the useful diagnosis data for the correction of visual acuity at near distance.

In near-field recording (NFR) optics using solid immersion lens (SIL), near-field air gap induces unwanted spherical aberration, defocus and astigmatism. This phenomenon can be explained with the apodization of phase and amplitude between each linearly polarized light. In this paper, we analyzed the effect of phase and amplitude apodization with the fundamental multiple beam interference theory, and we compared resultant diffracted patterns on the image plane for the Si-disk first surface media structure and cover-layer incident media structure.

Purpose: This study was to find the correlation between exophthalmetry and visual functions. Methods: Exophthalmetry and visual functions of 200 adults without ophthalmophathy and general disease were examined. Exophthalmetry were measured with Hertel's exophthalmometer. Visual functions (myopia, distance exophoria, near exophoria, near point of convergence, near point of accommodation) were measured for three times. Results: The exophthalmetry was $13.59{\pm}1.10mm$. Myopia, distance exophoria, near exophoria, near point convergence, and near point accommodation were measured as $-2.48{\pm}1.91D$, $3.51{\pm}1.78{\Delta}$, $5.73{\pm}2.44{\Delta}$, $9.63{\pm}2.82cm$, and $21.73{\pm}10.28cm$. With increasing exophthalmetry, the unaided visual acuity, myopia and astigmatism were decreased. On the other hand, distance exophoria, distance esophoria, near exophoria, near point of convergence and near point of accommodation were significantly increased, while exophthalmetry was increased. Conclusions: The relationship between visual functions and exophthalmetry were found to be statistically significant. It could be used as the clinical criteria for prescription of binocular inspections.
