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.

Color blindness diagnostic system
Systems and methods for determining whether to enable color blind accessibility settings within the course of a user interactive narrative are described herein. Virtual color blindness indication objects containing colors that are visibly distinguishable within a single dichromatic visual spectrum can be utilized in objectives to determine a user's dichromatic visual deficiency type.
DIGITAL VISUAL ACUITY EYE EXAMINATION FOR REMOTE PHYSICIAN ASSESSMENT
Systems and methods for assessing the visual acuity of person using a computerized consumer device are described. The approach involves determining a separation distance between a human user and the consumer device based on an image size of a physical feature of the user, instructing the user to adjust the separation between the user and the consumer device until a predetermined separation distance range is achieved, presenting a visual acuity test to the user including displaying predetermined optotypes for identification by the user, recording the user's spoken identifications of the predetermined optotypes and providing real-time feedback to the user of detection of the spoken indications by the consumer device, carrying out voice recognition on the spoken identifications to generate corresponding converted text, comparing recognized words of the converted text to permissible words corresponding to the predetermined optotypes, determining a score based on the comparison, and determining whether the person passed the visual acuity test.
