Abstract

The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for determining the location of at least two optical parameters of an eye of a test person. In the method, at least two optical parameters of an eye having a reference structure are photographically recorded to determine in each case one of the optical parameters of the eye. The apparatus for determining at least two optical parameters of an eye having a reference structure is provided with separate recording units for photographically recording the eye for the determination of in each case one of the optical parameters of the eye.
