Abstract
A measurement instrument and method: produce light having a linear shape; direct the light toward an eye and provide returned light, having the linear shape, from the eye to a split-prism; split the returned light into first and second linear segments and image them onto an image sensor; determine a first lateral offset between the first and second linear segments on the image sensor at a first time; determine a second lateral offset between them at a second time; determine a difference between the first and second lateral offsets; determine a distance that the eye moved relative to the first lens between the first time and the second time based on the difference between the first and second lateral offsets; perform optical coherence tomographer (OCT) measurements at the first and second times; and combine the OCT measurements while compensating for eye movement based on the determined eye movement.
