Abstract

A digital photogrammetric procedure for quantitatively analyzing optic-cup topography has been developed and evaluated. Stereopairs taken with the Zeiss Fundus Camera and the Allen Stereoseparator have been digitized and processed with a general purpose digital computer. A depth sensitivity of 184 ยต has been obtained. The following parameters were analyzed for reproducibility: cut depth, cup width, profile area, and cup volume. Photographic error was found to be 7 to 20 times greater than photogrammetric error.
