Abstract
Data representing structures in an eye, in particular data for a cross-sectional image, is recorded by generating a plurality of A-scans using swept-source OCT at different locations in the eye, each of which generates a plurality of reflection values for a plurality of points along a light trace. Combined values are then calculated from several reflection values at different locations in the eye. For improving data quality, a model of at one curved structure in the eye is fitted to the reflection values, and it is then used for identifying the points on the A-scans that are to be combined. This allows to project the data along a tangential direction of the curved structures for reducing noise and for obtaining improved resolution in the direction perpendicular to the structure.
