Statistical evaluation of the performance of an optimized adaptive optics arm for retinal imaging flood system

In the last decade, Adaptive Optics has been used to compensate the aberrations of the eye in order to acquire high resolution retinal images. The use of high speed deformable mirrors (DMs) to accomplish this compensation in real time is of great importance. But, sometimes DMs are overused, compensating the aberrations inherent in the optical systems. In this work the evaluation of the performance of an adaptive optics system together with the imaging system will be evaluated in order to know in advance the aberrations inherent in them in order to compensate them prior the use of a DM.
