Abstract

Fiber-based polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) can measure cumulative Jones matrix that includes both the fiber-optic components of the interferometer and the sample. To derive a relative optic axis of the sample, a relative angle of the eigenpolarizations is often calculated on the Poincaré sphere. Here, we suggest a new approach using Jones formalism. This method is demonstrated for optic axis imaging of the inner retina and sclera in the posterior eye segment using PS-OCT with parallel detection of Jones-matrix elements.
