A procedure to determine the best image range of distances that can be obtained from an aphakic eye is presented. Corneal surfaces are calculated from videokeratographic data. Light distributions at different distances inside the eye are calculated with a near-field…

Silver halide sensitized gelatin (SHSG) is an interesting technique for the production of holographic optical elements. It combines the high sensitivity of photographic emulsions with the well-known low scattering and high diffraction efficiency corresponding to dichromated gelatin. In this paper…

An algorithm is proposed for the spectral and colorimetric characterization of digital still cameras (DSC) which allows them to be
used as tele-colorimeters with CIE–XYZ color output, in cd/m2. The spectral characterization consists in the calculation of the
color-matching functions…

In recent years, holographic optical elements have been introduced in different applications such as high-density data storage, interconnections, spatial and temporal filters and three-dimensional displays. Simultaneously, more sensitive, efficient and durable holographic materials have been developed. Thus it is necessary…

The authors have developed a simple method to compare the colour gamuts of
different industries (printing, textiles, plastics, etc.) based on representing the reproduced
colours in constant lightness L* and hue hab* planes. This method allows the analysis of those

PURPOSE: To evaluate the changes in the optical quality of corneas of hyperopic patients operated using central multifocal presbyLASIK treatment through the study of light patterns around the retinal plane.
METHODS: This study included eight hyperopic eyes that underwent central…

Holographic data storage is a new optical technology, which allows an important number of bits to be stored in a recording material. In this paper, holographic data pages were stored in a polyvinyl alcohol/acrylamide (AA) photopolymer layer, using a peristrophic…

A new technique for analysing the optical quality of the human cornea is presented. Corneal maps are obtained through keratographies and then converted into phase maps. The propagated fields generated from this surface are plotted and studied. It is shown…

In this work, we have applied the fractional Fourier transform to obtain the Fresnel diffraction patterns in a theoretical eye. The FRT approach to Fresnel diffraction is easily implemented in a Gullstrand-Emsley theoretical eye, and it allows us to obtain…

Based on the results of the coupled-wave theory the diffraction efficiency is calculated for thick phase transmission holographic gratings taking into account the chemical processing of the recording material. Three effects of processing are considered: variations in the average refractive…
