Research progress of model eyes and optical analysis software in ocular diseases

Abstract

A model eye is used to study the anatomical structure and optical properties of the eye, and to analyze visual quality under different conditions using optical analysis software. By adjusting biological parameters such as axial length and corneal curvature radius and modifying its refractive state, the model eye can be used for ophthalmic surgical planning and treatment program development, leading to more accurate and objective assessments of visual quality. While previously used mainly for theoretical studies in optics and ophthalmology, model eyes and optical analysis software are now being applied to various ocular diseases, with their accuracy confirmed through comparison with clinical trials. This article aims to summarize the widely used model eyes and optical analysis software, as well as their applications, to offer new perspectives for diagnosing and treating ocular diseases and evaluating visual quality.
