To fully understand the visual defects in a patient's
vision, a 3D model of the eye is needed, which current
ophthalmic techniques cannot give. We present a method,
using high-field MRI and subsequent image processing, to
automatically construct patient-specific eye-models with
high accuracy. We have examined 21 eyes, of which 10
patients with mild to severe myopia. The resulting
eye-models show an increased retinal curvature in the
myopic group compared to the subjects with healthy eyes.
