Abstract
Several optical models of the eye have been proposed [1–6]. However, in all of them the distribution of refractive indices was taken either from biological or embryological data or from measurements on frozen sections of the lens. The optical performance of these models was a result of this design, and not its basis. Therefore, these models are not suitable for a study of the internal structure of the crystalline lens.
