Refractive index measurement of the isolated crystalline lens using optical coherence tomography
An optical coherence tomography system has been developed that was designed specifically for imaging the isolated crystalline lens. Cross-sectional OCT images were recorded on 40 lenses from 32 human donors with an age range of 6-82 years. A method has been developed to measure the axial thickness and average refractive index of the lens from a single recorded image. The measured average group ...
متن کاملRefractive index measurement of acute rat brain tissue slices using optical coherence tomography
An optical coherence tomography (OCT) system employing a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) mirror was used to measure the refractive index (RI) of anatomically different regions in acute brain tissue slices, in which viability was maintained. RI was measured in white-matter and grey-matter regions, including the cerebral cortex, putamen, hippocampus, thalamus and corpus callosum. The RI in t...
متن کاملDistortions of the posterior surface in optical coherence tomography images of the isolated crystalline lens: effect of the lens index gradient
We quantify the posterior surface distortions in optical coherence tomography (OCT) images of isolated crystalline lenses. The posterior radius of curvature and asphericity obtained from OCT images acquired with the beam incident first on the anterior, and then the posterior, surface were compared. The results were compared with predictions of a ray-tracing model which includes the index gradie...
متن کاملThe equivalent refractive index of the crystalline lens in childhood
Despite the importance of crystalline lens power in ocular development, schematic refractive index values used to calculate lens power have been validated for children. We measured refractive error and ocular component dimensions in 519 schoolchildren, calculating lens power using phakometrically measured lens radii and three different refractive index profiles: (1) Gullstrand-Emsley schematic ...
متن کاملLaser differential confocal lens refractive index measurement.
A new laser differential confocal lens refractive index measurement is proposed, which uses the absolute zero of the differential confocal axial intensity curve to precisely identify the positions of the objective when the measurement pencil is focused on the vertex of the test lens and the reflector with or without the test lens in the measurement light-path, and then uses aberration compensat...
