Medical interfaces and other medical devices, systems, and methods for performing eye exams
A mask for performing an eye exam of a subject includes one or more optically transparent sections for transmitting an incident light beam therethrough and incident on the subject's eye. In some embodiments, the one or more optically transparent sections are coated with an anti-reflective coating configured to reduce reflection of the incident light beam by the one or more optically transparent sections. In some embodiments, the one or more optically transparent sections may have a portion thereof that is tilted with respect to the incident light beam when the mask is optically interfaced with the docking portion of an ophthalmic instrument, such that the incident light beam forms a finite angle of incidence with respect to the corresponding portion of the optically transparent sections.
Method and apparatus for measuring a property of an eye
Embodiments of the present invention provide a computer-implemented method of determining a parameter indicative of dark adaptation of an eye, comprising receiving threshold data from a dark adaptometer indicative of a perception threshold of the eye, fitting first and second models to the threshold data, wherein the first model is associated with a first dark adaptation mechanism and the second model is associated with the first dark adaption mechanism and a second dark adaptation mechanism, determining a confidence associated with the fitting of each of the first and second models to the received threshold data, iteratively repeating the steps of receiving the threshold data and fitting the first and second models in dependence on the determined confidence, and outputting an indication of one or more parameters indicative of dark adaptation of an eye associated with one or both of the first and second models.
Methods and systems for obtaining, aggregating, and analyzing vision data to assess a person's vision performance
The present specification describes methods and systems for modifying a media, such as Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, or Mixed Reality (VR/AR/MxR) media based on a vision profile and a target application.

Modification profile generation for vision defects related to double vision or dynamic aberrations
In certain embodiments, double-vision-related vision defects determinations or modifications may be facilitated. In some embodiments, a stimulus may be to be presented at a first time at a position on a first display for a deviating eye of a user (e.g., without a stimulus being presented on a second display of for a reference eye of the user) to cause the deviating eye to fixate on the position on the first display. A deviation measurement for the deviating eye may be determined based on an amount of movement of the deviating eye occurring upon the presentation on the first display for the deviating eye at the first time. In some embodiments, a modification profile associated with the user may be determined based on the deviation measurement, where the modification profile includes one or more modification parameters to be applied to modify an image for the user.
