Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an indispensable diagnostic tool in ophthalmology which can provide crosssectional anatomic and functional information of the eyes. For analysis of the optical imaging performance of the eye, the ZEMAX ray tracing software can be used to establish the refractive model and to simulate the light spot and wavefront in ocular fundus. In our study, by combination of OCT and ray tracing technique, the imaging performance of mouse eye was evaluated and the central and peripheral image qualities were quantitatively analyzed. The whole mouse eyes were imaged by a customized OCT system and the OCT images were corrected for distortions caused by the refraction of light on the ocular surface. Parameters of mouse eye, both at central and peripheral areas, including corneal thickness, radius of curvature, lens thickness, etc., were then measured. Finally, the imaging performance of the ophthalmology system was evaluated by using ZEMAX software for ray tracing. The light spot size, the defocus blur parameter and the wavefront aberration were quantitatively evaluated. Our study may provide a method for research on myopia and hyperopia.
A null phase measuring deflectometry (PMD) is presented to measure the three-dimensional shape of aspheric mirrors with radial symmetry. Curved fringes displayed on a mobile screen are reflected by the surface under test, and a camera captures the fringe patterns. By analyzing the captured fringe patterns, the deviations along the normal of the mirror’s surface can be restored by integrating the slopes of these deviations, and then the surface under test can be reconstructed. Compared with non-null PMD, the qualitative information of surface in null PMD can be shown fast and easily for a surface with large deviations in the grinding stage. Computer simulation and experiment are presented to validate the presented method.
