    In consideration of corneal aspheric surfaces and from the point of view of an optical imaging,a way combining of a corneal bi-conic model with human eye models was proposed with the optical design software Zemax (Zemax Development Corp. San Diego,Calif.). On analysis of measured results of Chinese emmetropic cornea and the collected data of Chinese myopic eyes,the initial model eye was optimized based on choosing the wavefront aberration of a human eye as the merit function. The corneal models of the emmetropic and myopic eyes and corrected eye models were presented and the relevant corneal ablation model was also given. The results show that the maximum ablation depth located at the center is about 26.5 μm.It is concluded that the corneal bi-conic model combing with the human eye models is accord with corneal surface characters,which can be applied in clinical analysis and can also provide a useful digital model of calculating wavefront ablation profiles for wavefront aberration supported customized corneal ablations.
