An optical coherence tomography (OCT) system using partial mirrors is generally described. In an example, the OCT system includes a swept light source. The system further includes an interferometer into which light from the light source is directed and a detector configured to produce an imaging sample signal based on light received from the interferometer. The system also includes a partial mirror disposed over an aperture, wherein the partial mirror is configured to transmit light within a first wavelength range and reflect light within a second wavelength range.

An ophthalmologic apparatus includes: a head unit having an optical system capable of receiving light reflected from a subject's eye; a drive mechanism that movably holds the head unit; an alignment detection unit that detects a position of the subject's eye relative to the head unit; and a control unit that controls the drive mechanism. The drive mechanism includes at least two arms rotatably connected together, at least two first rotation support mechanisms and at least three second rotation support mechanisms which allow the head unit to move, and at least five driving units for driving the rotation support mechanisms. The control unit is capable of controlling the driving units using a measurement result of the alignment measuring unit to align the head unit and the subject's eye with each other.

An ophthalmic apparatus of an exemplary aspect performs the first and second OCT scans on a subject's eye. The first OCT scan is performed on the first region including the first site of the subject's eye, and the second OCT scan is performed on the second region including the second site. The ophthalmic apparatus acquires the first deviation information of the subject's eye prior to the first OCT scan and performs alignment, and also acquires the second deviation information of the subject's eye prior to the second OCT scan and performs alignment. The ophthalmic apparatus calculates the distance between the first site and the second site based on the first data acquired through the first OCT scan and second data acquired through the second OCT scan.

Image processing performed by a processor and including acquiring a two-dimensional fundus image, acquiring a second point on an eyeball model corresponding to at least one first point of the two-dimensional fundus image, and creating data to represent a process to move the first point to the second point.

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.

A target surface in an eye is located using a dual aiming beam apparatus that transmits a first aiming beam of light and a second aiming beam of light. An optics subsystem receives a laser beam from a laser source, the first aiming beam of light, and the second aiming beam of light, and directs the beams of light to be incident with the target surface and aligns the beams of light such that they intersect at a point corresponding to a focus of the laser beam. An imaging apparatus captures an image of the target surface including a first spot corresponding to the first aiming beam of light and a second spot corresponding to a second aiming beam of light. A separation between the spots indicates that the focus is away from the target surface, while overlapping spots indicate the focus is at or on the target surface.

A mask for performing an eye exam of a subject includes one or more optically transparent sections for transmitting an incident light beam therethrough and incident on the subject's eye. In some embodiments, the one or more optically transparent sections are coated with an anti-reflective coating configured to reduce reflection of the incident light beam by the one or more optically transparent sections. In some embodiments, the one or more optically transparent sections may have a portion thereof that is tilted with respect to the incident light beam when the mask is optically interfaced with the docking portion of an ophthalmic instrument, such that the incident light beam forms a finite angle of incidence with respect to the corresponding portion of the optically transparent sections.

Disclosed herein are methods and apparatus for making a determination about an eye comprising detecting light reflected out of an eye of a subject from a retina of the eye of the subject and making a determination about the eye of the subject based upon the reflected light, wherein the light is adjusted for color temperature when making the determination about the eye.

A system to perform remote oculography includes light-occluding goggles configured to be worn by a patient. The light-occluding goggles include an infrared camera positioned to capture one or more first images of a first eye of the patient. The light-occluding goggles also include a display positioned such that it is viewable by a second eye of the patient. The display is configured to display a pattern for the patient to view. The light-occluding goggles also include a sensor configured to detect information regarding a position of a head of the patient. The system also includes a visible light camera configured to capture one or more second images of the patient as the patient wears the light-occluding goggles.

An intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement system. An optical pressure sensor is implantable in the cornea of an eye, wherein the sensor has a sealed cavity that changes shape as a function of IOP of the eye. An optical transmitter that is outside of the eye emits an incident optical beam. A receiver that is also outside of the eye produces an output signal in response to receiving reflections of the incident beam from the sensor. A processor is configured to estimate the IOP of the eye based on processing the output signal of the receiver. Other aspects are also described and claimed.
