The quality of vision is significantly influenced by the shape of the cornea, and even subtle shape variations, at the micron level, can have significant effects on visual performance. The proposed research will develop effective scientific visualization techniques for the cornea. In such areas as eye disease diagnosis, eye surgery, and the design and fabrication of corrective contact lenses, the need for more precise measurements is apparent. Improved scientific visualization techniques will convey to a clinician the shape of a cornea to aid in the fitting of lens, the acuity of the visual field and after surgery, and will show how modifying the parameters of a contact lens affects its shape.

视力的质量受角膜形状的显著影响，即使是微米级的细微形状变化也会对视觉性能产生显著影响。 拟议的研究将为角膜开发有效的科学可视化技术。 在眼科疾病诊断、眼科手术以及矫正隐形眼镜的设计和制造等领域，显然需要更精确的测量。 改进的科学可视化技术将向临床医生传达角膜的形状以帮助透镜的装配、视野的敏锐度和手术后的敏锐度，并且将显示修改接触透镜的参数如何影响其形状。
