Refractive analysis of the human cornea through propagated fields
A new technique for analysing the optical quality of the human cornea is presented. Corneal maps are obtained through keratographies and then converted into phase maps. The propagated fields generated from this surface are plotted and studied. It is shown that any irregularity in the cornea affects the propagated field and the energy distribution at the focal plane. Simple applications are also indicated.
Influence of the gaze-stabilizing eye movements on the quality of the retinal image of the human eye
In this work we have studied the influence of the gaze stabilizing movements of the eye on the quality of the retinal image of the human eye obtained by double pass methods. The results obtained agree with the expected differences between the coherent and incoherent behaviour of the optical system of the eye. The movements-free retinal image is obtained from a typical retinal image by considering a filter function in the frequency domain which characterizes the effect of the considered movements.
Influence of the luminance spatial non-homogeneities of a display monitor on the contrast sensitivity function determination
Abstract The application of computer devices equipped with video monitors both in clinical practice and human vision research has become widespread. These devices offer great advantages over other traditional methodologies (such as printed tests) because they facilitate the variation of the experimental parameters or the design of new psychophysical experiences. The aim of this paper is to determine the degree to which spatial inhomogeneity affects the generation of sinusoidal gratings on a video display. Knowing this degree of tolerance will enable us to determine the minimum demands that can be made on the graphic board and the video screens for their implementation in assessing contrast …
