The present invention provides a retinoscope comprising: a refractor that has a lens module therein and is located at a predetermined distance from eyes of a person to be tested such that a line of sight of the person to be tested passes through an optometry window, wherein the lens module is configured such that a plurality of lenses necessary for correction are selectively located on the optometry window in order to obtain a correction value for correcting the eyes of the person to be tested; a main body for supporting the refractor; a retinoscope unit coupled to one surface of the main body and maintained at a predetermined distance from the refractor, wherein the retinoscope unit radiates light beams to the eyes of the person to be tested so as to be close to the line of sight of the person to be tested and rotates or reciprocates the light beams when receiving a signal of an operating unit; and the operating unit that operates driving of the refractor and the retinoscope unit.

Ophthalmologic imaging apparatus and method for controlling the same
10314480 · 2019-06-11 · ·

An ophthalmologic imaging apparatus includes a data acquisition unit and a controller. The data acquisition unit is configured to repeatedly acquire data by repeatedly scanning an eye using optical coherence tomography. The controller is configured to perform first control to adjust optical path length difference between a sample arm and a reference arm of an interference optical system for optical coherence tomography to place an image of the eye in a reference position in an image frame based on the data repeatedly acquired by the data acquisition unit. Further, the controller is configured to perform second control to change the optical path length difference so as to place the image of the eye in a new reference position in the image frame based on the data repeatedly acquired by the data acquisition unit. The apparatus can perform preparatory operations for OCT measurement of the subject's eye.

Ophthalmologic apparatus
10307058 · 2019-06-04 · ·

According to one embodiment, an ophthalmologic apparatus includes an optical system, a support, a drive unit, an alignment optical system, two or more imaging units, an analyzer, and a controller. The optical system acquires data of an eye. The support is configured to support the face of a subject. The drive unit moves the optical system and the support relative to each other. The alignment optical system projects an indicator for performing alignment of the optical system with respect to the eye onto the anterior segment of the eye. The imaging units photograph the anterior segment of the eye, onto which the indicator is being projected, substantially simultaneously from different directions. The analyzer analyzes two or more photography images captured substantially simultaneously by the imaging units to specify the position of the eye. The controller controls the drive unit based on the position specified by the analyzer.
