Abstract
Systems and methods for surveying the sclera are provided. In some aspects, a method for generating a design for a prosthetic lens for an eye of a subject includes arranging an eye of a subject at a distance from a plurality of illumination sources and a plurality of imaging devices, projecting light onto the eye of the subject using the illumination sources, acquiring image data of the eye of the subject and the light using the plurality of imaging devices, generating a three dimensional map of the eye, including the sclera, using the image data; and designing, using the three dimensional map of the eye for the lens that fits over a cornea of the eye to engage the sclera and form a fluid pocket between the prosthetic lens that surrounds the cornea.
