Abstract

In this paper the application of Zernike, Bessel and Chebyshev functions is studied and the results are compared when modeling ophthalmic surfaces in visual optics. The total RMS error is presented when addressing capability of these functions in fitting with different surfaces. It is shown that Chebyshev polynomials could be appropriate alternatives of the Zernike polynomials to represent complete anterior corneal surfaces.
