    Abstract: An ophthalmic apparatus includes a first optical system for acquiring information regarding an eye refractive power of a subject eye based on reflection light of measurement light reflected from a fundus of the subject eye, a second optical system for acquiring anterior segment information regarding a shape of an anterior segment of the subject eye, and a calculation controller that acquires an axial length of the subject eye based on an on-surface eye refractive power, which is the eye refractive power on a cross section on which an optical axis of the first optical system is arranged and the anterior segment information regarding the cross section.

    Abstract: Apparatus and methods are presented for non-contact in-vivo measurement of one or more properties of a cornea or tear film with spatial resolution. In certain embodiments the cornea/tear film is probed at substantially normal incidence with a converging array of beamlets from a multi-wavelength optical source, and the reflected light analysed interferometrically to generate a time sequence of pachymetry maps. Thickness variations arising from differences between the external and intraocular pressure, e.g. from the ocular pulse or externally applied pressure changes, are measured and analysed to obtain information on a biomechanical response of the cornea. In preferred embodiments the time variation in tear film thickness is measured and subtracted to yield normalised pachymetry data for the biomechanical analysis. In certain embodiments the apparatus is configured to measure the dynamics and profile of the tear film, using either converging or substantially parallel arrays of beamlets.

    Abstract: Devices and methods for the amelioration of ectatic corneal disorders using corneal augmentations derived from corneal tissue are disclosed. The shape of the augmentation is determined using data obtained from mapping of a patient's cornea based on computerized corneal topography and tomography. Factors considered include the maximum keratometry and specific iso-deviation contours. In one embodiment, an augmentation is a corneal inlay, intended for insertion into an intrastromal pocket. In a further embodiment, the augmentation is a corneal onlay, intended to be positioned over a region of the cornea from which the epithelial layer has been removed. The corneal onlay is held in place until the epithelial layer regrows over the augmentation. In a further embodiment, the inlay or onlay augmentation is followed by a post-augmentation, further reshaping of the corneal augmentation. In one embodiment, this further reshaping is photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) surgery.

    Abstract: Described are implementations of systems and methods for an improved machine learning-based system that incorporates pre-operative and intraoperative measurements captured during surgery, as well as additional patient-specific data, to provide an individualized, highly accurate post-operative manifest refraction prediction. According to some embodiments, a determination engine generates a predictive feature set of one or more predictors associated with diagnostic measurements of one or more eyes and performs a recursive selection operation using one or more combinations within the predictive feature set and one or more models to produce a most predictive subset, the most predictive subset having a highest prediction accuracy among other predictive subsets for post-operative manifest refraction. The determination engine generates a determination model by refining and retraining the one or more models of the recursive selection operation utilizing the most predictive subset.

    Abstract: A device and method for early detection of eye disease including a corneal topography device including a camera, such as a rotating Scheimpflug camera, configured to measure the elevation of a patient's two anterior corneas sequentially or simultaneously; a computer processor; and non-transitory computer readable media including computer readable instructions, which, when executed by the computer processor, causes the device to measure and store elevation data at a plurality of points on the patient's anterior corneal surfaces; organize the elevation data for each cornea into a two-dimensional matrix where the center of the cornea is in the center of the data frame, rotate the data for a first eye 180 degrees around the Y axis relative to a second eye, subtract data on each corresponding corneal point, and generate an elevation difference matrix showing the degree of symmetry or asymmetry between the patient's left and right eye corneal topography.

    Abstract: Systems and methods automatically locate optical surfaces of an eye and automatically generate surface models of the optical surfaces. A method includes OCT scanning of an eye. Returning portions of a sample beam are processed to locate a point on the optical surface and first locations on the optical surface within a first radial distance of the point. A first surface model of the optical surface is generated based on the location of the point and the first locations. Returning portions of the sample beam are processed so as to detect second locations on the optical surface beyond the first radial distance and within a second radial distance from the point. A second surface model of the optical surface is generated based on the location of the point on the optical surface and the first and second locations on the optical surface.
