Based on research in the transfer of student learning, we have developed two interactive visualizations that help students understand the optics of the human eye and recent advances in the use of wavefront aberrometry for vision defect diagnosis. The first visualization enables students to explore the optics related to accommodation of the eye lens, vision defects, and corrective lenses. The second visualization focusing on helping students learn about wavefront aberrometry, a relatively new method of diagnosing vision defects. Along with the visualizations, we will present our initial assessment of the effectiveness of the visualizations.
