Patent number: 5159361Abstract: A system, method, and apparatus for obtaining the corneal topography of an object using computer analyzed rasterstereographic images. The object may be nontransparent and diffusing, or it may be transparent and nondiffusing, such as a cornea. Rasterstereographic images of a cornea are produced by staining the cornea with a fluorescein solution which projects a light and dark line pattern onto the cornea through a grid. When obtaining the topography of a cornea, several different filters are used for producing and obtaining a grid image. An image processor uses unique software to store and analyze data extracted from the grid pattern. A video camera, an illuminator, the filters, and the grid may be mounted on a microscope. One embodiment uses a grid with vertical lines. Another embodiment uses a grid having intersecting horizontal and vertical lines for exhibiting surface details in a two-dimensional x-y plane.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 1990Date of Patent: October 27, 1992Assignee: Par Technology CorporationInventors: James L. Cambier, Salvins J. Strods
