The thought occurred to me :-)
Yes, I think it should be possible to get conventional retinal biometrics (which is of a
much lower quality
, I think) from
these
. It would take a special software, but it is not too difficult.
But this is the one you
cannot
get from this procedure:

You get this one:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retinal_scan
I am not sure whether it is easy to abuse them, if they are leaked..
