Abstract
Applying perturbation theory we have derived the first order perturbation corrections to the scattering characteristics for the case of light scattering by slightly deformed spheres. Numerical results are compared with those obtained using the extended boundary condition method. The range of applicability of the first order perturbation corrections are discussed.
