This special issue of Clinical and Experimental Optometry contains papers covering the breadth of application of wavefront optics, all of which illustrates how optometry has changed to become more dependent on technology. Clinicians should embrace the new technology that is changing the face of optometry for it has the potential to improve eye care in many ways but we should not adopt new technology blindly.
