Spherical aberration dependence on pupil size edit

Is it quadratic or quartic? (i.e. to the second or fourth power?) "...the increase in overall wave aberration with pupil size has been reported to increase to approximately the second power of the pupil radius...The effect of spherical aberration increases as the fourth power of the pupil diameter" That really confused me. Seems like a plain contradiction. If there are contradicting evidence, I think that should be stated explicitly. If that's not a contradiction, it should be explained.

What is "starburst"? edit

This appears to be the page that needs to define what "starburst" is as a symptom regarding human vision. [1] "Starbursts, or a series of concentric rays or fine filaments radiating from bright lights, may be caused by refractive defects in the eye."
