The invention relates to cylindrical tunable fluidic lenses. The cylindrical optical power of the lenses may be continuously tuned within at least ±10 diopters, without inducing any significant spherical aberration, or any other significant aberrations. The lenses feature a geometry that produces minimal or no spherical defocus. These cylindrical tunable fluidic lenses could be used to induce and/or correct cylindrical optical aberrations in adaptive optical systems, particularly in ophthalmologic applications related to objective and automatic assessment of the refractive error of the eye, without the need of receiving feedback from the subjects.

This lens unit comprises: a lens having a liquid crystal lens; a rim part that covers the peripheral edge section of the lens; a control unit that controls the liquid crystal lens; a conductive part that electrically connects the control unit and an electrode end section of the liquid crystal lens which is exposed at the peripheral edge section of the lens, and that is disposed between the rim part and the peripheral edge section of the lens; and a knob part that protrudes from the lens or rim part.

The present invention relates to a method for determining at least one optical property of a visual aid (e.g. eyeglasses) for a person, the method comprising the steps of: Observation of a test pattern (T) by the person through an tunable lens (20, 21) of a virtual reality (VR) and/or augmented reality (AR) headset (2) worn by the person, the tunable lens (20, 21) being positioned in front of an eye of the person, and adjusting at least one optical property of the tunable lens (20, 21) so that the person perceives the test pattern (T) as being sharp, or adjusting at least one optical property of the tunable lens (20, 21) until a sensor device (30, 31) detects accommodation of the eye of the person to the test pattern (T).
