Abstract
We present a fitting method for obtaining a functional form of the ref ractive index profile of planar microlenses made by ion exchange techn iques from total shearing interferometric measurements. Compared to th e usual power series expansion fit, this method allows a reduction in the number of coefficients needed to characterize a lens.
