    摘要: A device, method and booth for automatic determination of the subjective ocular refraction of a patient. The device, which is preferably set up in a booth, has an automatic refractor, a central unit, a data input unit, an instruction-generating system controlled by the central unit and configured to generate instructions to the patient at least during an eye test, an interface system provided between the patient and the central unit and configured to detect, and to transmit directly to the central unit, indications generated in the form of gestures by the patient at least during an eye test, the central unit being configured to automatically perform at least one eye test, by controlling the automatic refractor and by receiving indications generated by the patient by way of the interface system, and to automatically determine, from these indications received, the subjective ocular refraction of the patient and/or a prescription for spectacles.

    摘要: Introduced here are retinal cameras having optical stops whose size and/or position can be modified to increase the size of the space in which an eye can move while being imaged. In some embodiments, an optical stop is mechanically moved to recover retinal image quality as the subject shifts their eye. In some embodiments, an optical stop is digitally created using a pixelated liquid crystal display (LCD) layer having multiple pixels that are individually controllably. In some embodiments, multiple non-pixelated LCD layers are connected to one another to form a variable transmission stack, and each LCD layer within the variable transmission stack may be offset from the other LCD layers. In such embodiments, the optical stop can be moved by changing which LCD layer is active at a given point in time.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for characterizing a visual system of a subject using measures of the sensitivity to contrast, the visual system comprising visual signal processing elements each having an impact on the sensitivity to contrast, wherein a visual test where visual patterns having different spatiotemporal frequencies and with varying luminance levels and with varying levels of visual degradation of the visual patterns are shown to a subject to measure the sensitivity to contrast of said subject, is performed, wherein a predetermined response model of a visual system is preestablished on the basis of a determination of the visual signal processing element that predominantly limits the sensitivity to contrast for each value of luminance and spatiotemporal frequency, said predetermined response model relating the visual signal processing elements predominantly limiting the sensitivity to contrast to the luminances and to the spatiotemporal frequencies, wherein at least one of the visual signal processing elements is selected in order to be investigated, wherein at least one visual test is performed on the visual system of the subject, said visual test being optimized according to said at least one selected visual signal processing element, during the optimized visual test, the variations of the luminance levels and of spatiotemporal frequencies being limited within a range of luminance and a range of spatiotemporal frequency where the predetermined response model locates the visual signal processing element as predominant in limiting the sensitivity to contrast.
