Visual acuity metrics don't always tell the whole story.

Dr. Ariel Cerenzie from the Charlotte Contact Lens Institute recently shared an incredible patient journey, demonstrating the limitations of standard optics and the power of OVITZ Wavefront Technology.

The Patient Journey:
šŸ“ˆBaseline: This patient with keratoconus made the leap from standard gas permeable (GP) lenses to scleral lenses with front toricity, dramatically improving her acuity from 20/60 to 20/25.
šŸ“‰The Hurdle: Despite excellent acuity, the patient continued to struggle with nighttime glare, halos, and starbursts.
šŸ”ŽAssessment: Diagnostic testing revealed that high posterior corneal elevation and residual coma were causing significant Higher Order Aberrations (HOAs).

šŸ’”The Breakthrough: By integrating HOA correction into the scleral lenses utilizing OVITZ technology, Dr. Cerenzie was able to reduce the aberrations that standard optics leave behind. This provided a "high-definition" visual experience and restored the patient’s confidence to drive safely during late night work shifts.

The Takeaway: When the retina and crystalline lens are healthy, we shouldn't settle for "good enough." Advanced wavefront guided technology allows us to push past traditional boundaries and help patients achieve the absolute best vision they are physiologically capable of.

Have you ever witnessed a patient's "lightbulb moment" in the chair? šŸ’”

In our newest video, Dr. Gidosh breaks down how the Ovitz system is completely transforming patient education and specialty lens outcomes at the Pennsylvania College of Optometry.

One of the biggest hurdles in specialty care is simply explaining why a patient is experiencing symptoms like "streaky vision" (coma). But by utilizing visual simulations—like Point Spread Functions—Dr. Gidosh is showing patients the exact root of their visual disturbances.

When patients finally understand the why, everything changes: ✨ Multiple lines of gained acuity ✨ Massive subjective relief ✨ Empowered, highly compliant patients
We’re not just fitting lenses; we’re clarifying lives.

šŸŽÆPrecision: Achieving results that were once thought impossible.
šŸ”¬Innovation: Our clinic is at the forefront of specialty lens fitting.
🤸Student-Approved: Our students use the Ovitz system nearly every day and love the seamless integration.

The verdict from the clinic floor? "It’s really easy to use!" šŸ™Œ

In the latest installment of our Mastering HOA Correction Series, specialty contact lens expert Dr. Brooke Messer at Vance Thompson Vision reveals the #1 secret to Higher-Order Aberration (HOA) success: Rotational Stability. šŸ‘ļøāš”

The Workflow for Success:
1ļøāƒ£ Lock the Fit: Use aggressive haptics (toric, dual, or quad sags) to ensure the lens never rotates.

2ļøāƒ£ Timing is Everything: Don't chase astigmatism early! Order your HOA optics as soon as the lens rotation is stable.

3ļøāƒ£ Final Polish: Save your power and astigmatism tweaks for the very end once the HOA correction is doing the heavy lifting.

Stop chasing over-refractions and start locking in stability. Watch the interview for the clinical breakdown!

Are HOAs the "Ghost" in Your Patients' Vision? šŸ‘ļøšŸ‘»

Even with a perfect scleral fit, many patients still struggle with distorted vision. Dr. Brooke Messer at the Vance Thompson Vision breaks down a simple 3-step framework to identify and eliminate Higher-Order Aberrations (HOAs):

šŸ” SPOT IT: Perform retinoscopy over the diagnostic lens. If you see sc******ng or a distorted reflex, you're likely looking at measurable HOAs.
šŸ“Š SHOW IT: Use an HOA plot to give your patients a "lightbulb moment." Point out specific labels like Coma or Trefoil to explain why they see "doubling" or smears.
āœ… SOLVE IT: Upgrade to HOA-correcting scleral lenses. By combining standard power with customized optics, you can eliminate residual ghosting and deliver next-level clarity.

Dr. Holland, optometrist at the Cornea and Contact Lens Institute of Minnesota, discusses how the OVITZ Aberrometer is helping practices correct vision beyond standard scleral lens fitting.

Dr. Holland explains that some patients continue to experience visual disturbances such as halos, glare, streaking, and double vision even when wearing what were previously considered premium scleral lens optics. These symptoms are often caused by Higher Order Aberrations (HOAs), complex optical distortions that cannot be fully corrected with conventional lenses.

Using the OVITZ Aberrometer, practitioners are able to both measure and correct Higher Order Aberrations by applying wavefront-guided optics directly to the front surface of a scleral lens. According to Dr. Holland, this advanced approach has led patients to travel hours and even across state lines seeking this level of correction.

He says that this technology has become a meaningful practice differentiator and an important resource for the optometric community, particularly for clinicians working with patients who continue to struggle with visual quality despite traditional scleral lens solutions.

Dr. Petar Prpic of Prpic Eyecare Centre discusses how OVITZ has provided a clear path forward for Aberrometry in optometry. He explains that for a long time, many devices could quantify Higher Order Aberrations (HOAs), but there wasn't much a doctor could do for the patient.

OVITZ changed this by creating a "seamless" process to integrate aberration data with lens ordering. The system is simple to implement and allows the OVITZ team to design the HOA correction directly with the labs, finally connecting the measurement to a tangible improvement for the patient.

In this video:
• Why aberrometry has not been common in primary optometric care.
• The gap between measuring aberrations and being able to correct them.
• How OVITZ creates a "seamless" and simple workflow for practices.
• Why a stable scleral lens is the "perfect vehicle" for aberration control.

Dr. Petar Prpic of Prpic Eyecare Centre discusses how aberrometry is evolving in the field of optometry to help doctors connect more deeply with their patients. While measuring aberrations is not a new concept, Dr. Prpic highlights how OVITZ technology uses visual simulations to show patients exactly what their vision looks like, especially during night driving.

Many patients who struggle with vision challenges are told they see "20/20" on a standard eye chart, yet they continue to suffer from ghosting or glare. By using OVITZ to quantify and correct Higher Order Aberrations (HOAs), providers can validate the patient's experience and prove that they aren't "going crazy". This approach doesn't just measure a problem, it provides a clear path to a solution.

In this video:
• Why standard eye charts don't tell the whole story of a patient's vision.
• How visual simulations help patients connect with their diagnosis.
• The importance of using aberrometry to quantify HOAs.
• How validating a patient's struggle builds long-term trust and connection.
• Moving from measurement to finding an opportunity to solve the problem.

Dr. Petar Prpic of Prpic Eyecare Centre explains the mechanics behind correcting Higher Order Aberrations (HOAs) and why the choice of lens is critical. He notes that aberration correction cannot work if a lens is moving or rotating on the eye, which is why other types of optical corrections often fall short.

A well-fitted scleral lens serves as the "perfect vehicle" for this technology because it locks into place, providing the necessary stability.

Dr. Prpic uses a helpful analogy to explain the science: noise-canceling headphones. Just as headphones identify sound waves and overlay the inverse wave to cancel noise, OVITZ technology identifies how light enters the pupil and applies the inverse aberration to neutralize the distortion.

In this video:
• Why lens stability is the key to successful HOA correction.
• How scleral lenses act as the perfect delivery system for advanced optics.
• The "noise-canceling headphones" analogy for understanding wavefront technology.
• How creating an inverse of the aberration neutralizes visual distortion.
