DETACHABLE MULTI-FUNCTIONAL OPHTHALMIC TESTER
A detachable multi-functional ophthalmic tester is disclosed. The detachable multi-functional ophthalmic tester includes a movable platform and a measuring module. The movable platform has a first connecting portion and it can move along at least one direction. The measuring module is coupled to the first connecting portion. The measuring module is used to perform measurement on the eye to be tested. The movable platform and the measuring module are both detachable. The movable platform can move along X-axis direction, Y-axis direction and Z-axis direction. The first connecting portion of the movable platform can connect with different measuring modules to provide different functions. The measuring module can connect with different movable platforms.
FUNDUS IMAGE CAPTURING
An example device is configured to capture an image of an eye. The device includes a camera configured to capture the image of the eye. The device also includes: a first base configured to be moved along a first axis to position the camera to capture the image of the eye; a second base configured to be moved along a second axis to position the camera to capture the image of the eye; and a third base configured to be moved along a third axis to position the camera to capture the image of the eye.
Systems and methods for automated end-to-end eye screening, monitoring and diagnosis
System and method for fully automated end-to-end eye screening with automated medical acquisition and analysis. The system includes an eye imaging device, a mechanism that moves the imaging device, a computing platform that guides the movement mechanism, a user interface, and an electronic display device and/or printer to provide the screening, monitoring, and/or diagnosis report.
OPHTHALMIC EXAMINATION AND DISEASE MANAGEMENT WITH MULTIPLE ILLUMINATION MODALITIES
Imaging various regions of the eye is important for both clinical diagnostic and treatment purposes as well as for scientific research. Diagnosis of a number of clinical conditions relies on imaging of the various tissues of the eye. The subject technology describes a method and apparatus for imaging of the back and/or front of the eye using multiple illumination modalities, which permits the collection of one or more of reflectance, spectroscopic, fluorescence, and laser speckle contrast images.
SLIT-LAMP MICROSCOPE AND OPHTHALMIC SYSTEM
A slit lamp microscope of some embodiment examples includes an illumination system, first photographing system, first movement mechanism, and controller. The illumination system includes a slit forming unit that forms a slit for generating slit light and projects the slit light onto an anterior segment of a subject's eye from a first direction. The first photographing system photographs the anterior segment onto which the slit light is being projected, from a second direction different from the first direction. The first movement mechanism moves a movable portion that includes at least the slit forming unit. The controller performs a first control for the first movement mechanism to move the movable portion and a second control for the first photographing system to photograph the anterior segment a plurality of times in parallel with each other.
FREQUENCY-DOMAIN INTERFEROMETRIC BASED IMAGING SYSTEMS AND METHODS
Systems and methods for improved interferometric imaging are presented. One embodiment is a partial field frequency-domain interferometric imaging system in which a light beam is scanned in two directions across a sample and the light scattered from the object is collected using a spatially resolved detector. The light beam could illuminate a spot, a line or a two-dimensional area on the sample. Additional embodiments with applicability to partial field as well as other types of interferometric systems are also presented.
Method and system for determining the refractive properties of an eye of a child
The invention is directed to a system for determining the refractive properties of an eye. The system includes a wavefront measurement device for measuring the refractive properties of the eye. The system is configured to have at least one measurement mode assigned to children, wherein the system has an input device configured to switch the system into one of the at least one measurement mode assigned to children. The system is further configured to alter at least one of a group including a default pupillary distance, a default cornea vertex distance, a default position of the wavefront measurement device, a default position and/or direction of a measurement ray of the wavefront measurement device, a default position of a forehead and chin rest assembly of the system and a fixation target when the system is switched into the one of the at least one measurement mode assigned to children.
Multi-element prescription lenses with eye-tracking
The disclosed embodiments are generally directed to optical systems. The optical systems may include a proximal lens that may transmit light toward an eye of a user. The optical systems may also include a distal lens that may, in combination with the proximal lens, correct for at least a portion of a refractive error of the eye of the user. The optical systems may further include a selective transmission interface. The selective transmission interface may couple the proximal lens to the distal lens, transmits light having a selected property, and does not transmit light that does not have the selected property. The optical system can also include an accommodative lens, such as a liquid lens. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
HOME OCT WITH AUTOMATIC FOCUS ADJUSTMENT
An optical coherence tomography (OCT) system for imaging a retina applies a user specific focus correction to focus a sample arm light beam on the user's retina. An OCT image detector generates an OCT signal. A control unit monitors the OCT signal, controls a reference arm optical path length adjustment mechanism to identify a length of the reference arm optical path for which the OCT signal corresponds to an OCT image of the retina, and varies an operational parameter of the sample arm light beam focus mechanism over a range, while maintaining the length of the reference arm optical path for which the OCT signal corresponds to the OCT image of the retina, to identify a focus correction for the user, based on the OCT signal, for application to the sample arm light beam.
Ophthalmologic apparatus and method of controlling the same
An ophthalmologic apparatus comprises an optical system that includes an optical scanner, deflects light from a light source using the optical scanner, projects the light onto a subject's eye, and receives light based on returning light from the subject's eye, a movement mechanism that moves the subject's eye and the optical system relative to each other, an image acquisition unit that acquires an image of the subject's eye, an abnormality detector that detects abnormality based on a reference image and the image of the subject's eye, a scan controller that controls the optical scanner to re-perform a first scan or a second scan so as to project light from the light source onto a start position of the first scan, which is being performed for the subject's eye at an acquisition timing of the image of the subject's eye, or a start position of the second scan performed before the first scan, when the abnormality is detected by the abnormality detector, and a tracking controller that controls the movement mechanism based on the reference image and the image of the subject's eye, when the abnormality is not detected by the abnormality detector.
