The method comprises at least the following steps: producing a fixation point having a first visual appearance to be shown to a patient; producing a stimulus shown to the patient at a stimulus time-point at a pre-defined location; activating a response device by the patient upon noticing the stimulus at a response time-point; changing the fixation point to have a second visual appearance for a fixation point second visual appearance time interval near the stimulus time-point.

A perimeter 2 capable of acquiring, as a threshold SV, a value corresponding to a response result of a subject 22 to an optotype presented with various brightness, for measurement points set across an entire measurement field of view of the ocular fundus, displaying the threshold SV as a threshold inspection result SHR and storing the same in a memory 13, comprises: a portion 15 for obtaining a pattern deviation PDV of the threshold SV relating to each measurement point RG, from the threshold inspection result SHR; a portion for 15 for obtaining a P value representing the obtained pattern deviation PDV for each measurement point RG as a probability variable, and generating a probability map image MAP4 indicating the measurement points RG separately for each P value; a portion 16 for selecting, from an abnormal measurement point group RG of points in the probability map image MAP4 in which at least a prescribed number of measurement points having a P value at most equal to 5% are continuous, and, of those, for which at least a prescribed number of points have a P value at most equal to 1%, measurement points to be used as subsequent measurement points, until ten points have been reached; and a memory 13 for storing the selected subsequent measurement points, wherein the selection of the subsequent measurement points is controlled in such a way that the measurement points RG are selected from the abnormal measurement point group in order of those having a good pattern deviation PDV.

A binocular brightness sensitivity measurement method based on a wearable display device includes: loading a first test image and a second test image which has a brightness different from that of the first test image respectively for two eyes of a user under test; adjusting the brightness of the first test image and/or the second test image until a predefined brightness sensitivity perception test condition is fulfilled; acquiring a brightness difference between the first test image and the second test image; and determining a binocular brightness sensitivity of the user under test based on the brightness difference.

A method and apparatus are provided for measuring a sensitivity level across a visual field of a subject defined by a set of locations. The method comprises: presenting a sequence of visual stimuli on a display, wherein each stimulus in the sequence has a respective intensity level and is positioned on the display to correspond to a respective location from the set of locations; obtaining from the subject, for each stimulus, a respective binary response indicating whether or not the stimulus was seen by the subject; and after receiving the response from the subject for a given stimulus in the sequence, using a statistical model to estimate, for each location in the set of locations, the sensitivity level at that location; wherein the statistical model incorporates information about correlations in responses between different locations from the set of locations and takes as input, the respective binary response, intensity level and location for multiple stimuli presented in said sequence up to and including the given stimulus.

A refraction device includes a main body, a spherical power lens coupled to the main body, an astigmatic power lens movably coupled to the main body, and a visual display coupled to the main body and oriented toward an optical pathway extending through the spherical power lens and the astigmatic power lens. The visual display is configured to display an image for testing visual acuity.

Devices, systems and methods are described that can facilitate automated administration of a low contrast visual acuity test to a user. The low contrast visual acuity test can be administered using a display device and a computing device. The computing device can score results of the low contrast visual acuity test and determine a visual status of the user based on the score.

Methods, apparatus, and systems for performing an ophthalmic diagnostic test are disclosed. In one aspect, a head-wearable device for administering an ophthalmic test to a subject can comprise a head-wearable frame for mounting the device onto the subject's head, and a light seal configured for coupling to the frame so as to isolate at least one eye of the subject from ambient light when the device is worn by the subject.

An apparatus and method for evaluating a patient's contrast sensitivity. The apparatus including a table or chart with a plurality of shaded marks printed in cells in the table or chart. The shaded marks printed with a various contrasts with a log of Weber contrast ranging from 0.20 to 2.15. Where a subject marks an observed position of the shaded marks and a key is used to check the observed position against an actual position of the shaded mark to determine a threshold contrast of the subject.

A method identifies at least one malfunctioning nozzle in a digital printing press, the digital printing press including a plurality of nozzles. The method includes printing a design on a substrate, acquiring at least one image of the printed design and identifying at least one artifact in the acquired image. The method further includes identifying the malfunctioning nozzle and classifying the at least one malfunctioning nozzle according to the at least one of the acquired image of the printed design, at least a portion of a nozzle pattern and at least a portion of a uniformity pattern.

A waveguide apparatus includes a planar waveguide and at least one optical diffraction element (DOE) that provides a plurality of optical paths between an exterior and interior of the planar waveguide. A phase profile of the DOE may combine a linear diffraction grating with a circular lens, to shape a wave front and produce beams with desired focus. Waveguide apparati may be assembled to create multiple focal planes. The DOE may have a low diffraction efficiency, and planar waveguides may be transparent when viewed normally, allowing passage of light from an ambient environment (e.g., real world) useful in AR systems. Light may be returned for temporally sequentially passes through the planar waveguide. The DOE(s) may be fixed or may have dynamically adjustable characteristics. An optical coupler system may couple images to the waveguide apparatus from a projector, for instance a biaxially scanning cantilevered optical fiber tip.
