In an embodiment, a controller included in a blood flow measurement apparatus controls a scanner to iteratively scan one or more cross sections of an interested blood vessel. An image forming unit forms a phase image that represents chronological change in phase difference in the one or more cross sections based on data acquired through iterative scan. An image processor outputs a predetermined signal based on the chronological change in phase difference represented by the phase image. Upon receiving the predetermined signal, the controller controls the scanner to start scan for acquiring blood flow information on the interested blood vessel.

The present application discloses methods and systems to track the anterior segment while establishing a position of the delay which will permit good control of the placement of anterior segment structures. This allows accurate dewarping by maximizing the amount of corneal surface that is imaged as well as reducing or eliminating overlap between real and complex conjugate images present in frequency-domain optical coherence tomography. A method to dewarp surfaces given partial corneal surface information is also disclosed.

An eye imaging system can include a head-wearable eye imager positioning helmet with an outer shell and a conformable liner that can include head location fiducials defining a specified plane. An attached articulating eye imager fixture can include an eye imager positioning indication system to indicate a position of the eye imager with respect to an eye of the patient for acquiring one or more images at the indicated position such that images recorded over a chronic period of time are assessable using the position information. The articulating eye imager fixture can include an articulating arm and an eye imager mount. The system can assist the patient with helmet positioning, and can automatically position a fundus camera or other eye imager for accurate image capture and analysis, such as using a trained machine learning model for patient evaluation, monitoring, or diagnosis.

The present disclosure relates to calibration, customization, and improved user experiences for smart or bionic lenses that are worn by a user. The calibration techniques include detecting and correcting distortion of a display of the bionic lenses, as well as distortion due to characteristics of the lens or eyes of the user. The customization techniques include utilizing the bionic lenses to detect eye characteristics that can be used to improve insertion of the bionic lenses, track health over time, and provide user alerts. The user experiences include interactive environments and animation techniques that are improved via the bionic lenses.

In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, an optical coherence tomography-based ophthalmic testing center system includes an optical coherence tomography instrument comprising an eyepiece for receiving at least one eye of a user or subject; a light source that outputs light that is directed through the eyepiece into the user's or subject's eye, an interferometer configured to produce optical interference using light reflected from the user's/subject's eye, an optical detector disposed so as to detect said optical interference; and a processing unit coupled to the detector. The ophthalmic testing center system can be configured to perform a multitude of self-administered functional and/or structural ophthalmic tests and output the test data

Embodiments of this invention generally relate to systems and methods for eye imaging, and more particularly to measuring the size and position of the lens capsule and of the implanted intraocular lens. In one embodiment, a method for measuring the size and position of the lens capsule and of the implanted intraocular lens comprises generating and emitting one or more light beams at an angle adjacent to the eye, generating one or more eye images, and detecting the position and/or boundary of a lens capsule from its shadow casted by reflected light on the iris.

A fundus photographing apparatus includes: a photographing unit including a front photographing optical system that forms, on a pupil of an examinee's eye, an illuminating light projection region and an illuminating light receiving region next to each other in a first direction, the front photographing optical system scanning a fundus of examinee's eye with illuminating light to acquire two-dimensional reflection image of the fundus; a driver that moves the photographing unit relative to examinee's eye; and a processor that switches, between a first and a second alignment mode, a control of guiding a positional relation between the examinee's eye and the photographing unit, the positional relation being guided to a first alignment state in predetermined positional relationship in the first alignment mode, and being guided to a second alignment state displaced at least in a direction crossing the first direction from the first alignment state in the second alignment mode.
