ijspeert

PURPOSE ^

Return an estimate of the optical MTF or PSF or LSF of the human eye

SYNOPSIS ^

function [MTF, PSF, LSF] = ijspeert(age, p, m, q, phi)

DESCRIPTION ^

 Return an estimate of the optical MTF or PSF or LSF of the human eye

      [MTF, PSF, LSF] = Ijspeert(age, p, m, q, phi)

   The formula is a function of various parameters. 

    Parameters:
        age - age of person in years
        p - pupil diameter in mm
        m - pigmentation parameter:
            m=0.142 for Caucasian population mean
            m=0.16  for mean blue Caucasian eye
            m=0.106 for mean brown Caucasian eye
            m=0.056 for mean pigmented-skin dark-brown eye
        q - spatial frequencies in cycles per degree to compute MTF on 
        phi - angles in radians to compute PSF and LSF on

 Examples:
    [MTF] = ijspeert(age = 30, pupilDiameter (mm) = 3, m=.142, q=[0:60])           % computes only the MTF
    [MTF, PSF] = ijspeert(age, p, m, q, phi) % computes MTF and PSF
