  • Patent number: 10888222
    Abstract: A system and a method for testing a visual field of a subject are described. The method includes determining inter-eye distance of the subject. Visual stimuli are displayed on a left display region and a right display region of a two-dimensional display to the subject based on the determined inter-eye distance. The left display region is configured to display content specific to the left eye and the right display region is configured to display content specific to the right eye of the subject. Subject responses to the visual stimuli are tracked. Based on the subject responses, a condition of the visual field of each eye the subject is evaluated and then results of the evaluation describing the subject's visual field condition is reported or stored.

  • Publication number: 20190328305
    Abstract: A system and a method for testing a condition of a subject's nervous system using virtual reality technology are described. The method includes displaying a visual stimulus to the subject in a virtual reality environment. Eye and body movements of the subject are tracked as the subject focuses on the visual stimulus. The body movements may include head movements. Based on the eye and body movements, the condition of the subject's nervous system is evaluated and then results of the evaluation describing the subject's nervous system condition is reported to a user, such as a clinician, for further analysis thereof.

  • Patent number: 9968251
    Abstract: Various methods of displaying combined structural and functional disease progression information of a patient's eye are described. In one exemplary method, a set of structural measurements of the patient's eye is received. The set of structural measurements are taken at a plurality of testing dates. A set of functional measurements of the patient's eye is received. The set of functional measurements are taken at a plurality of testing dates. A single viewport comprising a side by side display of structural and functional measurements over a common time scale is generated, which is then displayed or the results of the generated viewport are stored. The structural and functional measurements are arranged in a chronological order of testing dates over the common time scale. Further, a structural and a functional measurement that have testing dates falling within a certain time period are placed in close proximity to each other for comparison purposes.
