How can I model squeezed states in 3D optical modelling software?

In summary, the individual is interested in using optics software, specifically OptiFDTD or ZEMAX, to model the evolution of squeezed light and its properties, such as phase, when passing through lenses. However, they are unable to find a way to generate these states using an Optical Parametric Amplifier. They have come across a software called RP propulse that models Optical Parametric Oscillators, but they are unsure if it also models squeezed light and phase in 3D. They are also unable to access the software as they are working on this recreationally and not affiliated with any organization. They are seeking recommendations for a similar program that can help with their goal.

TL;DR Summary
Is there any way to model squeezed states of light in optical modelling software such as OptiFDTD or ZEMAX?
I would like to model squeezed light and its evolution (such as when passing through lenses after being generated) using optics software such as OptiFDTD or ZEMAX. However, I don’t see any way to make such states…my plan was to simulate an Optical Parametric Amplifier to generate these states but I can’t seem to find any way to do that. Is there any way to generate squeezed states of light in a 3D optical modelling software (that allows you to view properties such as phase after some evolution)?

I found a software that models (or at least helps design) Optical Parametric Oscillators called RP propulse: https://www.rp-photonics.com/rp_propulse.html. However, I am unsure if this software models the evolution of squeezed light or properties such as phase in 3D.Moreover, I can't seem to get my hands on the software as I am doing this recreationally and am not working on this with any organization. Is there some similar program I could use for this? Any help would be appareciated.
