DESCRIPTION (Adapted from Phase II application abstract): The project proposed in this Phase II application has a broad, long-term objective to develop a user friendly software program, VOL-3D, which models and evaluates the optics of a real and/or user-defined eye and stores analysis outcomes in a relational data base. The software program will use ray tracing and traditional paraxial analysis of the composite model eye. The program will allow, but not require, exam data from commercially available ophthalmic instruments as input in the construction of the model of an individual's eye. The specific aims of Phase II are to capitalize on the Phase I demonstration of feasibility to: 1) expand the library of callable functions; 2) obtain independent verification of modeling assumptions and implementation; 3) optimize the user friendliness; and 4) develop ophthalmic instrumentation interface software modules. This program is related to human health in that it will provide: 1) outcome predictions of surgical and non-surgical interventions; 2) development and optimization of strategies for the optical correction of the eye; 3) education of clinicians and students of visual science; and 4) fundamental research into limitations of the dioptrics of the eye. PROPOSED COMMERCIAL APPLICATION: The software program VOL-3D will be purchased and used by clinicians, vision researchers, owners of corneal topography systems, students, teachers, and companies who are attempting to understand in a predictive manner the optical properties of the eye.

描述（改编自第II阶段应用摘要）：本第II阶段应用中提出的项目具有广泛的长期目标，即开发用户友好的软件程序VOL-3D，该软件程序可对真实的和/或用户定义的眼睛的光学特性进行建模和评估，并将分析结果存储在关系数据库中。该软件程序将使用光线跟踪和传统的近轴分析的复合模型眼睛。该程序将允许但不要求将来自市售眼科仪器的检查数据作为构建个人眼睛模型的输入。第II阶段的具体目标是利用第I阶段的可行性证明：1）扩展可调用函数库; 2）获得建模假设和实现的独立验证; 3）优化用户友好性; 4）开发眼科仪器接口软件模块。该计划与人类健康有关，因为它将提供：1）手术和非手术干预的结果预测; 2）眼睛光学矫正策略的开发和优化; 3）临床医生和视觉科学学生的教育;以及4）对眼睛屈光度限制的基础研究。拟定商业应用：软件程序VOL-3D将由临床医生、视觉研究人员、角膜地形图系统的所有者、学生、教师和试图以预测方式了解眼睛光学特性的公司购买和使用。
