At present there are eight known optical pulsars. Over the last number of years attention has been focused more on the high energy (X-ray and gamma-ray) emission. Analysis of pulsed emission at optical wavelengths has been confined mainly to analytical/phenomenological models. This poster presents initial simulation results of a quasi phenomenological-physical model of pulsed optical emission from neutron stars. The underlying magnetic field structure is taken to be that of a three dimensional retarded dipole. Emission areas are located by combining geometrical mapping of beams from within the magnetosphere with viewing angle data (taken from standard radio data). Models are constructed and simulations carried out using these specific viewing geometries - applied particularly to the Crab.
