Circular polarization biomicroscopy: a method for determining human corneal stromal lamellar organization in vivo

The theory of polarization biomicroscopy is explored using Stokes vectors and Mueller matrices. It is established that circular polarization can be used to simultaneously detect birefringent elements at any orientation unlike orientation‐sensitive techniques using linear polarized light alone. A met...
