Abstract
A method for determining an index-of-refraction profile of an optical object, which has a cylindrical surface and a cylinder longitudinal axis, said method comprising the following method steps: (a) scanning the cylindrical surface of the object at a plurality of scanning locations by means of optical beams; (b) capturing, by means of an optical detector, a location-dependent intensity distribution of the optical beams deflected in the optical object; (c) determining the angles of deflection of the zero-order beams for each scanning location from the captured intensity distribution, comprising eliminating beam intensities, and (d) calculating the index-of-refraction profile of the object on the basis of the angle-of-deflection distribution, wherein method steps (a) and (b) are carried out with light beams having at least two different wavelengths.
