N2 - An efficient method for rapid, non-contact scanning of human cornea is presented. The optics utilize two, 101.6-mm diameter off-axis parabolic mirrors fed by a goniometrically scanned, planar mirror. An evaluation system at 650 GHz was built and demonstrated ~ 1.5 mm beam radius on target and ~ 30o x 30o field of view. The system was inspired by confocal laser scanning principles and represents a system design where image acquisition time is limited by SNR, not mechanical translation.
