A system for manufacturing an optical lens that is configured to correct
optical aberrations, including, e.g., high order aberrations such as
described by Zemike polynomials. The system can include a measurement
system configured to measure optical aberrations in a patient's eye and
to create measured optical aberration data. A calculation system is
configured to receive the measured optical aberration data and to
determine a lens definition based on the measured optical aberration
data. A fabrication system is configured to produce a correcting lens
based on the lens definition.
