Since in confocal, both illumination and detection perform imaging and we pick-up the intensity in the center of the imaging volume by using a pin-hole --- I wonder what does the PSF of spherically aberrated confocal look like. I think there are papers by Sheppard and Min Gu that need to be consulted. 

And also Jim Pawley's experimental papers and the confocal book should be looked up.
