A medical imaging binocular indirect ophthalmoscope with computational processing unit, enabling simultaneous or time-delayed viewing and collaborative review of photographs or videos from an eye examination. The invention also claims a method for photographing and integrating information associated with the images, videos, or other data generated from the eye examination.

The present disclosure relates to a novel pupilometer and method of using the pupilometer to record and analyze direct and consensual reflex of pupils to identify brain lesion locations of a patient with brain injuries.

In exemplary implementations of this invention, a bi-ocular apparatus presents visual stimuli to one eye of a human subject in order to relax that eye, while measuring refractive aberration of the subject's other eye. Alternately, a monocular device presents stimuli to relax an eye while testing the same eye. The apparatus induces eye relaxation by displaying virtual objects at varying apparent distances from the subject. For example, the apparatus may do so by (i) changing distance between a backlit film and a lens; (ii) using extra lenses; (iii) using an adaptive lens that changes power; (v) selecting distinct positions in a progressive or multi-focal length lens; (vi) selecting distinct optical depths by fiber optical illumination; (vii) displaying a 3D virtual image at any given apparent depth; or (viii) display both a warped version of the real world and a test image at the same time.

A control apparatus of an imaging apparatus, includes a selection unit configured to select an image-capturing site of a subject to be examined, a control unit configured to control adjustment of a member of the imaging apparatus, according to the selected image-capturing site, and a determination unit configured to determine whether to perform the adjustment or not in response to a change of image-capturing sites through the selection by the selection unit, based on image-capturing conditions for the image-capturing sites before and after the change of the image-capturing sites.

The present invention is directed to a medical imaging binocular indirect ophthalmoscope with onboard sensor array and computational processing unit, enabling simultaneous or time-delayed viewing and collaborative review of photographs or videos from an eye examination. The invention also claims a method for photographing and integrating information associated with the images, videos, or other data generated from the eye examination.

In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, an optical coherence tomography-based ophthalmic testing center system includes an optical coherence tomography instrument comprising an eyepiece for receiving at least one eye of a user or subject; a light source that outputs light that is directed through the eyepiece into the user's or subject's eye, an interferometer configured to produce optical interference using light reflected from the user's/subject's eye, an optical detector disposed so as to detect said optical interference; and a processing unit coupled to the detector. The ophthalmic testing center system can be configured to perform a multitude of self-administered functional and/or structural ophthalmic tests and output the test data
