Abstract

We study 3D retinal surface reconstruction by using an affine camera due to two following reasons: (1) NIH’s retinal imaging protocols specify a narrow field of view and (2) each retinal image has small depth variation. Specifically, we incorporate the prior knowledge of human retina geometry in the reconstruction process, and introduce a point-based approach to estimate the retinal spherical surface. We also show that lens distortion removal and affine bundle adjustment improve the reconstruction error in terms of the deviation from the underling spherical surface. Simulation results on both synthetic data and real images show the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed algorithm.
