METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CORNEAL MEASUREMENT OF A SUBJECT

An apparatus for measuring a cornea of a subject contains an image capturing device configured to capture image data of an iris of the subject from a plurality of viewpoints by imaging beam paths which pass through the cornea and a computing unit for providing a mathematical model of an anterior eye...

Zusammenfassung:	An apparatus for measuring a cornea of a subject contains an image capturing device configured to capture image data of an iris of the subject from a plurality of viewpoints by imaging beam paths which pass through the cornea and a computing unit for providing a mathematical model of an anterior eye section of the subject including a mathematical model of the cornea and the iris. The model further identifies and registers image features of the iris, which are present in a plurality of images of the image data; determines deviations between actual positions of the image features of the iris in the images captured from the plurality of viewpoints and expected positions of the image features of the iris in the images captured from the plurality of viewpoints in consideration of the mathematical model of the cornea and the position of the iris.
