   Corneal tomography is an imaging technique that provides information about the shape of the cornea. Commercial methods combine corneal slit-scan technology with other imaging systems like Placido disk or Scheimpflug techniques. We propose an alternative method based on the combination of computer stereo-vison methods with light sheet illumination.Authors: Alfonso Jimenez Villar, Oregon Health & Science University / David Huang, Oregon Health & Science University / Siyu Chen, Oregon Health & Science University
