Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a method for quantifying a pigmented lesion using Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT). The method includes (a) irradiating light and receiving an interference signal produced by reflection of the light from first and second boundary layers of a pigmented lesion; and (b) calculating size information of the pigmented lesion using phase information of the interference signal. According to embodiments of the present invention, there is an advantage of allowing calculation of size information of a pigmented lesion using OCT, by increasing a measurement range in the axial direction to which beams are irradiated.

An optical modulator is disposed in front of an eye along a direction in which light enters the eye to modulate the properties of light depending on the degree of opacity of the eye.
Abstract:
A multi-focal optical device comprises an image output unit outputting optical information, a linear polarizer uni-directionally polarizing the optical information, a first light reflector including a first polarizer transmitting light only in a first direction and reflecting the light transmitted through the first polarizer, a second light reflector including a second polarizer transmitting light only in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction and reflecting the light transmitted through the second polarizer, a light splitter splitting the optical information transmitted through the linear polarizer into the first light reflector and the second light reflector and reflecting the optical information reflected by one of the first light reflector or the second light reflector to allow the reflected optical information to form one focus, and a controller configured to control the linear polarizer to vary a direction of polarization of the linear polarizer.
