1. A method for reducing the effects of motion in measurement data from the eye of a patient, said method comprising:

  • collecting measurement data at a plurality of positions across the eye of the patient using a measurement system;

    simultaneously collecting images of the retina of the patient such that each measurement has a corresponding image frame using a fundus imaging system different from the measurement system;

    comparing each image frame to a reference image frame to determine the amount of eye movement that occurred during the collection of the measurement data;

    collecting replacement measurement data when the determined amount of eye movement associated with one or more positions exceeds a predetermined threshold, with the location of the collected replacement measurement data being adjusted to compensate for the determined amount of eye movement;

    generating an image from the measurement data; and

    storing or displaying the image.
