Abstract: Devices systems, and methods can measure, diagnose and/or characterize an eye of a patient, including physiologic and optical properties, such as hydration and tear volume in relation to an optical surface of the eye, including topography of a corneal surface of the eye and/or a wavefront elevation map of the eye. The system forms an image of a tear meniscus along an eyelid. The eye can be illuminated so that the meniscus appears as a dark band in the image. Tear volume can be determined by measuring a height across the tear meniscus. The tear volume can be used to determine the optical properties of the tear of the eye and to diagnose conditions of the eye. The patient can be screened for treatment of the eye with refractive surgery using a measured pupil size, hydration and topography and/or wavefront.

Abstract: Methods and systems can correct aberrations and/or verify various procedures used to correct aberrations in the eye. One embodiment provides a method for verifying vision correction for a patient's eye comprising measuring irregular aberrations of the eye and determining a proposed refractive correction for treatment of the eye. A central portion of a verification lens is configured so that the central portion corresponds with the proposed correction. The verification lens is then registered with the eye by positioning a peripheral portion of the verification lens upon the sclera so that the central portion is optically aligned with the aberrations. Then a determination is made whether a corrected vision of the eye with the verification lens is acceptable so as to verify the proposed correction.
