A wide range of sampling densities of the wave-front has been used in retinal adaptive optics (AO) instruments, compared to the number of corrector elements. We developed a model in order to characterize the link between number of actuators, number of wave-front sampling points and AO correction performance. Based on available data from aberration measurements in the human eye, 1000 wave-fronts were generated for the simulations. The AO correction performance in the presence of these representative aberrations was simulated for different deformable mirror and Shack Hartmann wave-front sensor combinations. Predictions of the model were experimentally tested through in vivo measurements in 10 eyes including retinal imaging with an AO scanning laser ophthalmoscope. According to our study, a ratio between wavefront sampling points and actuator elements of 2 is sufficient to achieve high resolution in vivo images of photoreceptors.
与校正元件的数量相比,视网膜自适应光学(AO)仪器中使用了各种不同的波前采样密度。我们开发了一个模型,以描述致动器数量、波前采样点数量与AO校正性能之间的联系。基于人眼像差测量的现有数据,为模拟生成了1000个波前。针对不同的可变形镜和夏克-哈特曼波前传感器组合,模拟了在这些代表性像差存在情况下的AO校正性能。通过对10只眼睛进行体内测量,包括使用AO扫描激光检眼镜进行视网膜成像,对该模型的预测进行了实验测试。根据我们的研究,波前采样点与致动器元件的比例为2就足以在体内获得高分辨率的光感受器图像。
