We know the pattern of the original grid projection and we are able to capture on film
the distorted image. Based upon these two quantities, we are able to draw conclusions
about the corneal surface.
The corneal surface is a two-dimensional object (because it may be theoretically
described by the two-variable function
. We will simplify the problem by examining only a one-dimensional slice of
the corneal surface, which may be described by the function
.
