Description

OCT-based human eye astigmatism measuring method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of computers, in particular to a human eye astigmatism measurement method based on OCT.
Background
Astigmatism refers to a state of ametropia in which two focal lines and a minimum diffuse spot are formed due to the difference of refractive powers of light rays on different meridians of an eyeball, and both cornea and crystalline lens have significant influence on astigmatism. Astigmatism can cause vision loss and visual fatigue in humans, and can even cause dizziness and headache in humans. If the measurement cannot be accurately performed, the astigmatism cannot be accurately corrected and treated according to the actual situation of the patient in the astigmatism correction process.
The cornea and the lens act as the main parts of the refractive system of the eyeball, and play an important role in the refractive power of the eyeball. At present, astigmatism is mainly judged by using various parameters of the front surface of the cornea. In practical applications, the existing devices and means for measuring astigmatism do not measure cornea and lens well, mainly as follows:
1. corneal curvature gauge: keratometer is a method based on measurements of the anterior surface of the cornea. The keratometer extrapolates the refractive power of the back surface of the cornea using an empirical keratometry index, which method is biased. And its measurement range is small, it is generally unreliable in measuring astigmatism.
2. IOL-Master500: the astigmatism is measured by utilizing telecentric optics and optical reflection principles, although the measurement is relatively quick and has good repeatability, the measurement result can not reflect the whole cornea morphology, is greatly influenced by the stability of the tear film, and can not completely measure the whole surface of the cornea.
3. Pentacam: the main principle is a three-dimensional anterior ocular segment analysis and diagnosis system adopting the Scheimpflug imaging principle to perform rotary scanning, a built-in Scheimpflug camera can scan in 2s to obtain coaxial 50-amplitude crack images, and corneal curvature and refractive power are deduced from height. The measurement is affected by the transparency of the cornea and cannot be performed through a turbid cornea.
4. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT): the resolution is higher, can shoot the image of each level of eyes, allow each structure of eyes to be visualized and measured, have higher image quality, can utilize OCT image to acquire the relevant parameter of each structure of eyes. Currently, spectrum OCT is more commonly used, and the detection range of spectrum OCT cannot meet the actual needs in application.
By contrast, swept OCT has higher accuracy and accuracy in evaluating astigmatism of the eye, and swept OCT has higher resolution and deeper detection range, and can better measure human eye structure.
If the existing instrument with higher precision can be used, a precise method for measuring astigmatism can be designed. The degree of astigmatism and the axial position of astigmatism can be accurately determined, the detection level of astigmatism of human eyes can be obviously improved, and the early correction and early treatment of astigmatism can be realized.

step 3: selecting 12 meridians centered on the pupil in a reconstruction model for cutting, wherein the meridians are uniformly distributed from 0 to 180 degrees, 640 points are taken on each meridian, the thickness of the cornea and the lens and the curvature of the front surface and the back surface are obtained, and the diopters of the eye, the cornea and the lens are calculated by utilizing a formula:

step 4: the total diopter of 640 points on 12 meridians (uniformly distributed from 0 degree to 180 degrees) of human eyes is calculated by a formula, the maximum value and the minimum value of the total diopter are found, the difference value of the maximum value and the minimum value is equal to the astigmatism amplitude M, the angle of the cornea meridian corresponding to the maximum value of the total diopter is the astigmatism angle alpha, and the astigmatism axis positionPerpendicular to the angle of astigmatism, i.e. +.>
The beneficial effects of adopting above-mentioned technical scheme to produce lie in:
the invention provides an OCT-based human eye astigmatism measurement method, which has the following beneficial effects:
1. the device uses a non-contact and non-invasive measurement mode, and basically does not cause certain damage to the body of a patient.
OCT has higher resolution and deeper detection depth, and OCT is utilized to evaluate the diopter of eyes with higher precision and accuracy, so that the structure of eyes can be better measured.
3. The traditional method of measuring astigmatism is based only on the measurement of the anterior surface of the cornea, without taking into account the effect of other structures of the eye on astigmatism. We reconstruct three-dimensional reconstruction of the anterior and posterior surfaces of the cornea and of the anterior and posterior surfaces of the lens and extract the relevant parameters. This also allows the measurement method we propose to take into account the effect of the whole eye structure on astigmatism, so that the degree of astigmatism and the corresponding axis of astigmatism of the patient can be determined more accurately.
