  • Method of filtering data for the objective classification of eyes
    Publication number: 20060187413
    Abstract: A method for classifying a patient's eye includes the steps of: obtaining normal and abnormal wavefront aberration data from normal and abnormal eyes; fitting the normal and abnormal eye wavefront aberration data with a basis function to decompose the normal and abnormal eye wavefront aberration data into normal and abnormal eye mathematical components; examining the normal and abnormal eye mathematical components to develop mathematical optical filters capable of discriminating between normal and abnormal eyes, using statistical methods to define a probability distribution; obtaining wavefront aberration data from the patient's eye; fitting the patient's wavefront aberration data with a basis function to decompose the patient's wavefront aberration data into the patient's set of mathematical components; examining the patient's set of mathematical components using the mathematical optical filters to generate a patient filter value; and classifying the patient's eye by comparing the patient filter value with t
