A method for administering a cone contrast color vision test includes displaying a first color at a first contrast level in a first region of a display and a second color at a first contrast level in a second region of the display, receiving a first input signal via an input device that indicates whether the patient recognizes the first region, displaying the first color at a second contrast level in a third region of the display and the second color at a second contrast level in a fourth region of the display, receiving a second input signal indicative of whether the patient recognizes the third region, assigning a score related to cone sensitivity of the first color at the first and second contrast levels, storing the score, and comparing the score to a previous score to calculate a progression of a cone sensitivity loss.

Disclosed are training method, program and computing device to ameliorate visual field defect. The method includes presenting, by a computer, a virtual first object on a screen, wherein the first object is presented in an approaching manner toward the subject from a first position to a second position, when a position of the first object reaches the second position, the dividing, by the computer, of the first object into objects and presenting the divided objects on the screen or removing, by the computer, the first object from the screen, when the first object is divided or removed, presenting, by the computer, a virtual second object and a virtual third object on the screen, and receiving, by the computer, an identification input about the second object and the third object from a response input device of the subject.

The invention relates to a method for characterizing a visual system of a subject using measures of the sensitivity to contrast, the visual system comprising visual signal processing elements each having an impact on the sensitivity to contrast, wherein a visual test where visual patterns having different spatiotemporal frequencies and with varying luminance levels and with varying levels of visual degradation of the visual patterns are shown to a subject to measure the sensitivity to contrast of said subject, is performed, wherein a predetermined response model of a visual system is preestablished on the basis of a determination of the visual signal processing element that predominantly limits the sensitivity to contrast for each value of luminance and spatiotemporal frequency, said predetermined response model relating the visual signal processing elements predominantly limiting the sensitivity to contrast to the luminances and to the spatiotemporal frequencies, wherein at least one of the visual signal processing elements is selected in order to be investigated, wherein at least one visual test is performed on the visual system of the subject, said visual test being optimized according to said at least one selected visual signal processing element, during the optimized visual test, the variations of the luminance levels and of spatiotemporal frequencies being limited within a range of luminance and a range of spatiotemporal frequency where the predetermined response model locates the visual signal processing element as predominant in limiting the sensitivity to contrast.

An optometer may include a test object including a point light source and a collimator lens configured to collimate light from the point light source. The optometer may generate, for a user viewing the point light source through the collimator lens, an image of the point illumination source on a retina of an eye when the eye is in a rest position without triggering the eye to focus. A user-perceived deviation of the image of the point source from an in-focus image is indicative of visual refractive error of the user. A user may use the device with a naked eye to gauge visual refractive error of the eye or may use the device with corrective lenses to gauge the efficacy of the corrective lenses.

A method for performing a full-field stimulus threshold (FST) test on a test subject, the method comprising: delivering at least one visual stimulus to at least one eye of the test subject, wherein the least one visual stimulus comprises a flash of light having an intensity and a duration, wherein the intensity of the flash of light is adjusted over the duration of the flash of light; obtaining at least one response from the test subject, wherein the at least one response corresponds to whether the test subject perceived the at least one visual stimulus; and determining the lowest intensity of light that the test subject is able to perceive based on the at least one response from the test subject.

The disclosed embodiments are generally directed to optical systems. The optical systems may include a proximal lens that may transmit light toward an eye of a user. The optical systems may also include a distal lens that may, in combination with the proximal lens, correct for at least a portion of a refractive error of the eye of the user. The optical systems may further include a selective transmission interface. The selective transmission interface may couple the proximal lens to the distal lens, transmits light having a selected property, and does not transmit light that does not have the selected property. The optical system can also include an accommodative lens, such as a liquid lens. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Configurations are disclosed for a health system to be used in various healthcare applications, e.g., for patient diagnostics, monitoring, and/or therapy. The health system may comprise a light generation module to transmit light or an image to a user, one or more sensors to detect a physiological parameter of the user's body, including their eyes, and processing circuitry to analyze an input received in response to the presented images to determine one or more health conditions or defects.

Methods, systems, and devices are provided for measuring dark adaptation of one or both eyes of a patient, and more particularly, for measuring dark adaptation with a mobile device application. An exemplary method includes exposing an eye of a patient to a light source to bleach a retinal location of the eye, displaying on a mobile device a figure with a luminance and waiting until the patient communicates with the mobile device to acknowledge that the patient can see the figure, measuring and recording a level of the luminance and a time period between first displaying the figure and the patient communicating with the mobile device, continuing to display additional figures with decreasing luminance one at a time, and determining by a processor dark adaptation measurements of the patent based on the measured and recorded luminance and time periods.
