Abstrakt: A patent application has been submitted for a new method of measuring eye shape using optical coherence tomography (OCT). The current method, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), is expensive and not very accurate for tracking small changes over time. The proposed method uses OCT to acquire two-dimensional images of the eye and register the data from different regions to create a more accurate map of the eye's shape. This could be valuable for diagnosing and treating eye diseases and conditions. The patent application describes the apparatus and method for measuring eye shape using OCT, which involves measuring various aspects of the eye and processing the data to determine a corrected retinal shape. The goal is to improve the accuracy and efficiency of eye shape measurement using OCT technology. [Extracted from the article]
