A system and method for an eye test application for mobile devices and in particular to applications for self-determination of eyeglass prescription via mobile computing devices comprising Simultaneous Split Point Focus (SSPF) and Low Latency Dynamic Distance Monitoring (LLDDM) for enabling self-determination of eyeglass prescription for a user via a mobile computing device, the device comprising: volatile and non-volatile memory for storing data; a processor configured for executing program instructions stored in the non-volatile memory; a visual display screen adapted to receive image information from the processor to present instructions and images to a user; and a camera configured to receive images of the user's pupils during a test situation; wherein the system comprises application program instructions for directing the processor to undertake a method for determining an eyeglass prescription, the method comprising: determining if an eye of the user is myopic, and if the user's eye is myopic; determining Principal and Axis Meridians of a user's eyes while the user is observing the image information on the display screen; enabling the system of LLDDM for real time determination of the refractive power errors in the Principal and Axis Meridians of a user's eyes in while the user is observing the SSPF image information on the display screen; calculating Sphere, Cylinder and Axis prescriptions from the Principal and Axis Meridian values obtained via the LLDDM system; and displaying the calculated prescription values to the user.

Provided is an ophthalmologic apparatus, including: a scan unit configured to repeat two-dimensional scanning on a fundus of an eye to be inspected with measuring light; an image generation unit configured to generate a two-dimensional image of the fundus based on reflected light of the measuring light from the fundus that is two-dimensionally scanned; and a control unit configured to control, in the two-dimensional scanning, an amount of the measuring light that is radiated to the fundus and is not used to generate the two-dimensional image to be smaller than an amount of the measuring light that is radiated to the fundus and is used to generate the two-dimensional image.

A display unit (16) outputs a stimulating image to an external display device (20). The stimulating image is obtained by synthesizing a luminance map in which luminance of each pixel is set in such a manner that a change in the luminance along a first axis follows a given spatial frequency, and a contrast map in which contrast of each pixel is set in such a manner that the contrast gradually decreases from one end to another end along a second axis and that an equal contrast line forms a given waveform. A response data generation unit (22) acquires a contrast value corresponding to each of the coordinates acquired by a user input receiving unit (21). A sensitivity calculation unit (23) calculates contrast sensitivity. A result output unit (25) outputs contrast sensitivity while adding reliability of the contrast sensitivity calculated by a reliability calculation unit (24) thereto.

An improved workflow for acquiring image data of the eye of a patient is described. The workflow can be used with any ophthalmic diagnostic devices including an Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) device. This workflow is referred herein as a report driven workflow. Under the report driven workflow, a plurality of report options are presented to the device operator. These report options are selectable to generate a report summarizing analysis relating to a specific pathology or region of the eye. A desired report option is selected by the device operator. Based on the selected report option, one or more scan types are automatically selected by the device software. Image data corresponding to the one or more scan types are captured using the ophthalmic diagnostic device. An analysis for the selected desired report option is generated based on the captured image data and is then presented to the device operator.

A mobile device comprises a pupil information collecting module and a master control module, such that the pupil information collecting module may be used for collecting pupil characteristic information of a user. The master control module may receive the pupil characteristic information of the user when the user accesses a controlled unit, and may determine, on the basis of the pupil characteristic in formation of the user, if the user is allowed to access the controlled unit. The mobile device may use the pupil characteristic information of the user to perform identity verification.

A visual function evaluation is performed using a sequence of interactions with a mobile device. A patient user may perform a variety of visual tests using the mobile device. The mobile device transmits the test results to a remote server implementing analysis of the visual function results using network service. The network service receives the test results, processes the results, and provides the processed results to a healthcare provider. The processed results may include trends of the user's visual function test performance. The healthcare provider, such as a physician, may optimize and administer treatment based on the data. Early detection of changes in visual function can enable the healthcare provider to individualize treatment, helping to prevent vision loss while minimizing visits to the office, discomfort, and expense.

In an ophthalmic examination system of one embodiment, an internal examiner terminal is used by an internal examiner in a facility where an ophthalmic examination apparatus is installed. An external examiner terminal is used by an external examiner outside the facility. A management apparatus includes a communication establishment unit, and an information transfer unit. The communication establishment unit is capable of establishing communication between at least two apparatuses selected from the ophthalmic examination apparatus, the internal examiner terminal, and the external examiner terminal. The information transfer unit is configured to transfer information sent from one of the at least two apparatuses whose communication has been established by the communication establishment unit. Each of the ophthalmic examination apparatus, the internal examiner terminal, and the external examiner terminal includes an output unit configured to output information transferred by the information transfer unit.

There is a need for robust and portable system, and apparatus for ophthalmology. We propose use of folding apparatus for ocular purposes for the first time. Our system will have a chin-rest (or face-rest or forehead rest) that can be folded so that the ocular device could be transported in a brief-case type casing.

Methods, devices, and systems are disclosed for determining refractive corrections of human eyes to reduce and eliminate image distortion associated with eyeglasses. In some embodiments, an objective refraction module is configured to measure refractive errors of an eye objectively, without subjective feedback from a tested subject. A computation module is configured to generate a plurality of objective prescriptions. A phoropter module is configured to perform a subjective refraction for determining a plurality of subjective spherical powers based on the plurality of objective prescriptions. An output module is configured to generate a plurality of prescriptions for eyeglasses, the plurality of prescriptions comprising (a) a first prescription having a first subjective spherical power f.sub.s1, a first objective cylinder power F.sub.c1, and a first objective cylinder angle F.sub.a1, and (b) a second prescription having a second subjective spherical power f.sub.s2, a second objective cylinder power F.sub.c2, and a second objective cylinder angle F.sub.a2.

The invention provides a system for a patient to obtain quality eye tests results without other people's assistance. The system includes a wearable, head-mounted, ophthalmic device. With a head mounted structure, the patient's head position remains still relative to the ophthalmic device. One or more “iris” cameras and a display screen are used to help align the patient's eye on ocular lenses for optimal eye test results. The system includes a patient interface module that allows the patient to operate the device. Accessory features such as a microphone and earphones are used to communicate with a close by stander during and after the eye exam. Another key feature is a cloud service connection used to store test results for remote access by the patient or other authorized persons.
