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.

A method for facilitating surgery using an augmented reality system, comprises retrieving patient data relating to a surgical procedure on a patient, generating virtual content comprising a virtual three-dimensional (3D) anatomical model based on the patient data, and displaying the virtual content, such that, when viewed by the first user, the virtual 3D anatomical model appears to be fixed at a physical location, whereby the virtual 3D anatomical model may be viewed by the first user from any angle or orientation merely by walking around the physical location.

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.

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.
