ABSTRACT:
A model eye that models the optical characteristics of a human eye and is endowed with a grayscale pattern on the ocular fundus model surface is stereographically photographed with a parallax via a stereo photographic optical system. Photographed images are processed to provide calibration data for correcting the shape distortions of the stereo photographic optical system. The calibration data is used to correct a distortion-affected shape data and parallax images obtained in stereographic photography of the actual ocular fundus of a subject's eye. The shape distortion-corrected parallax image is used for a three-dimensional measurement process and 3D display on a stereo monitor. This allows an accurate three-dimensional measurement to be carried out and an accurate fundus image to be produced. The examiner can accurately evaluate the stereo shape of the ocular fundus of the subject's eye.
