See attached PDF. Really needs a control (un-moved mirror for example), and more motivation on value of using it with glasses.

Moderate amount of grammar issues. It's not too bad, but it should be improved for sure.

Peripheral Wavefront Sensor with Fixation Target Made by Optical Simulation for Measuring Human Eye Regardless of Spectacle
In this paper the authors propose an aberrometer for peripherical defocus measurements in order to establish and correct myopia progression in the human eye. The novelty of their proposal consists in the possibility to measure peripherical retina aberrations within horizontal and vertical visual fields.
The performance of the proposed aberrometer was validated via Bland-Altman plot and independent two-sample tests, in three different experiments: with the naked eye, with spectacles and with multifocal lens and compared to conventional methods.
The cited references are relevant to this research, however there are only 5/45 cited references published in the last 5 years. The recommendation will be to cite more recent references.
Including major advantages such as compactness and cost-effectiveness the proposed aberrometer presented in this paper is expected to have high impact in multiple fields such as in medicine (by 2050 it is estimated 50% of the world population will be affected by myopia), economy (work efficiency is affected when people do not correct their myopia), individual health care, etc. Therefore, I recommend this manuscript to be accepted for publication with minor aforementioned revisions.

Round 2
Reviewer 1 Report
Comments and Suggestions for Authors
The authors have made significant modifications to the paper, resulting in a strengthened manuscript in my opinion. They have shown the setup more clearly, added more discussion on certain results, and added the right refences to show the improvement they have made and justify the value of their contribution. I recommend it for publication. Just fix the grammar issue on like 304 here: "can subjects optical characteristics".
I only mention minor revisions because of that typo above....otherwise its good to go!

It's pretty good, no major issues. Just need to fix the grammar issue on like 304 here: "can subjects optical characteristics"

We would like to thank you for the letter and the opportunity to resubmit revised copy of this manuscript. We would also like to take this opportunity to express our thanks to the reviewers for the positive feedback and helpful comments for correction.
We update the manuscript as below.
“Unlike previous work [17], the newly developed system excludes the pupil camera and can subject optical characteristics with different degrees of myopia without requiring additional optic components.
