Abstract

In the past interferometry has been applied in three main fields. Fringe interferometry has been used for the topographic measurement of surfaces. Interferometric length measurement techniques have been used for the measurement of distances, refractive indices, and wavelengths. In addition interferometric techniques have also been used in synthetic aperture imaging. Here we discuss various interferometric techniques which can be used in ophthalmology, describe the problems involved and present the results obtained so far.
