System, Method, and Head-Mounted Device for Visual Field Testing
An apparatus for vision testing comprises a visual test unit (VTU) configured to receive a patients face and perform the vision test on the patient. The VTU includes an internal display configured to generate a light stimulus and a gaze sensor configured to track the eye of the patient. In one aspect, a plurality of VTUs form a system controllable by a common technician to concurrently administer vision tests on different patients. In another aspect, the gaze sensor comprises a camera configured to capture a video of the patients eye displayed to the technician. In another aspect, the VTU is configured to pause testing upon detection of an adverse testing condition such as excessive head tilt or a closed eye. In another aspect, the test display comprises an array of LEDs and a perforated opaque screen to provide sufficient luminance. In another aspect, the VTU comprises a head mounted portion with a pair of focusing lenses and a mirror arranged to transmit light from the test display to the eyepiece and from the eyepiece to the gaze sensor. In another aspect, the VTU includes a patient input device configured to receive input from the patient to signal observance of a light stimulus in the visual field around a fixation point, and the VTU is configured to monitor the patients gaze and pause the test upon detecting that the patients gaze has moved from the fixation point.
EYE-TRACKING FUNDUS IMAGING SYSTEM
A head mounted display includes a display layer, an array of light sources, a first optical combiner, and a second optical combiner. The array of light sources are configured to be selectively enabled to emit non-visible light to illuminate a fundus of an eye. The first optical combiner is configured to receive reflected non-visible light that is reflected by the eye, direct a first component of the reflected non-visible light to a first camera to generate an image of the eye, and pass a second component of the reflected non-visible light. The second optical combiner is configured to receive a fundus imaging light responsive to the second component of the reflected non-visible light, and to direct the fundus imaging light to a second camera to generate an image of the fundus.
INFRARED TELE-VIDEO-OCULOGRAPHY FOR REMOTE EVALUATION OF EYE MOVEMENTS
A system to perform remote oculography includes light-occluding goggles configured to be worn by a patient. The light-occluding goggles include an infrared camera positioned to capture one or more first images of a first eye of the patient. The light-occluding goggles also include a display positioned such that it is viewable by a second eye of the patient. The display is configured to display a pattern for the patient to view. The light-occluding goggles also include a sensor configured to detect information regarding a position of a head of the patient. The system also includes a visible light camera configured to capture one or more second images of the patient as the patient wears the light-occluding goggles.
Panum's area measurement method, apparatus, and wearable display device
A panum's area measurement method includes: projecting a first parallax image of a spatial object to the left eye of a user under test, and projecting a second parallax image of the spatial object to the right eye of the user under test, the first parallax image comprising a first homologous point and the second parallax image comprising a second homologous point; adjusting a horizontal parallax amount between the first homologous point and the second homologous point until the user under test observes the spatial object producing a ghost; acquiring a parallax amount parameter Δn.sub.e; calculating a horizontal physical spacing Δx between the first homologous point and the second homologous point based on the parallax amount parameter Δn.sub.e; and calculating a panum's area range (μ.sub.in, μ.sub.out) of the user under test based on the horizontal physical spacing Δx.
Systems and methods for vision testing
A vision testing device includes a light-occluding casing for administering vision tests. A viewing station is coupled to the light-occluding casing so a test subject can see a first digital display housed within the light-occluding casing. A second digital display is external to the light-occluding casing and is configured to receive touch-based input. One or more predetermined vision tests are displayed via the first digital display. The second digital display receives input corresponding to the vision test displayed via the first digital display. The second digital display includes response indicators that can be activated via a swiping motion on the second digital display, and a response is recorded as a result of the swiping motion. Each answer corresponding to a swiping motion is stored and output as a result of the vision test.

The vision detection headset is configured to display content to be recognized under control of the processor; the sound collection device is configured to obtain a recognition voice of a wearer for the content to be recognized; the fundus detection device is configured to obtain a fundus image of the wearer; and the processor is configured to acquire the recognition voice and the fundus image.
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING AT LEAST ONE OPTICAL PROPERTY OF A VISUAL AID FOR A PERSON
The present invention relates to a method for determining at least one optical property of a visual aid (e.g. eyeglasses) for a person, the method comprising the steps of: Observation of a test pattern (T) by the person through an tunable lens (20, 21) of a virtual reality (VR) and/or augmented reality (AR) headset (2) worn by the person, the tunable lens (20, 21) being positioned in front of an eye of the person, and adjusting at least one optical property of the tunable lens (20, 21) so that the person perceives the test pattern (T) as being sharp, or adjusting at least one optical property of the tunable lens (20, 21) until a sensor device (30, 31) detects accommodation of the eye of the person to the test pattern (T).
Method and apparatus for measurement of a characteristic of an optical system
Disclosed embodiments may include a device, system and method for providing a low cost device that can measure refractive errors very accurately via attachment to a smart phone. A disclosed device may use ambient light or a light source in simulating the cross cylinder procedure that optometrists use by utilizing the inverse Shack-Hartman technique. The optical device may include an array of lenslets and pinholes that will force the user to effectively focus at different depths. Using an optical device, in conjunction with a smart phone, the user first changes the angle of the axis until he/she sees a cross pattern (the vertical and horizontal lines are equally spaced). The user adjusts the display, typically using the controls on the smartphone, to make the lines come together and overlap, which corresponds to bringing the view into sharp focus, thus determining the appropriate optical prescription for the user.
