Abstract

This paper presents a method for reconstructing the corneal surface. The proposed method was tested in 56 healthy and 15 post-orthokeratology corneas. The Medmont E300 Corneal Topographer was used to measure the anterior corneal elevation, and custom MATLAB scripts were employed for data analysis, fitting, and other computational processes. The results obtained were compared with the fitting to an ellipsoid and to a biconic, using an alternative method, showing similarities among the different approaches. Additionally, the advantages of this method and the biconic's generality over the ellipsoid were also demonstrated. In conclusion, the method proposed offers an approach with potential applications in the field of visual and ophthalmic optics related with modeling of the cornea and other optical surfaces.
