Abstract: An ophthalmic optical coherence tomography instrument, method, and computer-readable medium. The instrument includes a scanner defining an apparent point source for scanning sample light across a subject position and an objective having a posterior imaging configuration to project the apparent point source onto a pivot point between the objective and the subject position. The objective is settable between the posterior imaging configuration for scanning the sample light across a retina of an eye at the subject position and an anterior imaging configuration for scanning the sample light across a pivot plane. An axial region from which an interferogram is detectable extends across the pivot plane while the objective is in the anterior imaging configuration. A pupil alignment method uses the anterior imaging modality to obtain a structure position of a structure of an eye's anterior segment and then an offset between the structure position and a reference position.
Abstract: Face protection equipment that comprises an eye imaging module for measuring an eye component (such as a retina, sclera, cornea, iris, limbus, pupil, or eyelid), can be used to measure an ocular parameter (such as saccades, vergence, smooth pursuit, gaze, eye fixation, pupil size, or eyeblinks). This ocular parameter measurement can then be used to assess human health, such as a traumatic brain injury. It can also be used to develop and implement ocular training protocols on a user-viewable display, and to assess the effects of a pharmacologic intervention.
Abstract: Methods and systems for dynamically determining stimuli characteristics for vision defect determination during a vision test. The methods and systems convert the feedback received from the binary suprathreshold test into a feature input that is provided to a prediction model. The prediction model may be trained to predict non-binary characteristics for sets of locations and confidence scores associated with the sets of locations based on feedback indicating binary characteristics under which users see one or more stimuli presented on user interfaces.
Abstract: A suspended-particle device with improved adhesion between the active and conductive layers is disclosed. The conductive layers are coated with an adhesion promoter that comprises at least one organosilane that covalently bonds to the surface of the conductive layer and comprises a cross-linkable moiety such as an acrylate. The active layer comprises a suspension of active particles in a polymer matrix that comprises a polymer having pendant cross-linkable moieties such as acrylates. Upon curing (e.g. by irradiation by ultraviolet light), the polymer matrix of the active layer cross-links with the cross-linkable moieties of the adhesion promoter, thereby binding the active and conductive layers.

The system is a portable and head-mounted goggles system is provided for eye stimulation of pupillary response assessment. The head-mounted goggles system comprises a visor, a pair of LEDs, a pair of well-arrangement and two cameras. The well-arrangements are designed in such a way that the LEDs provide a narrow light cone only to the eye under observation and prevents the contralateral eye from being stimulated. The cameras are independent of each other and are configured to capture images and transmit the images to a remote computing device through wired and/or wireless means.
