ZPL MACROS

[Umbral]

Hi,

I would like if anyone could help me out or guide me........
I have designed the human eye in Zemax with it seems to be working fine but now I need that the radius and conic parameters change as I change the source thickness........Does anyone know how to go around?

Many thanks in advance!

Do you want to push certain values to the radius, conic, and thickness or do you want to optimize based on a merit function once changing thickness?

Hi Rob,

I do not need to use optimisation.....I just need to introduce a few equations in Zemax somehow so that when I change the distance (thickness)of my light source, the radius,refractive index, distance and conic parameters of surfaces 3 and 4 of my eye model also change accordingly.......This is an accommodated eye model, meaning that when the source change with distance, the eyes focus by changing curvature of the eyes. This is why I really need to do but I do not know how?

Many thanks for your email

Regards,

Personally I would drive the model with Matlab but if you want to use ZPL check out the manual specifically "Chapter 25 Zemax Programming Language" and "setsurfaceproperty" I hope this helps.

thanks a lot, i will try the setsurfaceproperty.
