Publication number: 20250331713Abstract: Systems and methods for administering a visual acuity test include using a computing device including an image capturing device and a display screen. One or more images of a test subject are captured and used to determine a separation distance between the computing device and the test subject. Identifying data provided by the computing device can be used to determine device characteristics of the image capturing device and display screen so that the separation distance can be estimated and so that graphics (e.g., optotypes) can be produced by the display screen at a size related to the separation distance and to the display screen's characteristics. Parts of a visual acuity exam can be administered as a test subject vocally reads the graphics, their vocal input is recorded, analyzed, and scored. Systems may use object detection algorithms to track whether the test subject has covered an eye with an appendage.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 20, 2023Publication date: October 30, 2025Inventor: Ofer Limon

Patent number: 12313916Abstract: A phase-adjusting element configured to provide substantially liquid-invariant extended depth of field for an associated optical lens. One example of a lens incorporating the phase-adjusting element includes the lens having surface with a modulated relief defining a plurality of regions including a first region and a second region, the first region having a depth relative to the second region, and a plurality of nanostructures formed in the first region. The depth of the first region and a spacing between adjacent nanostructures of the plurality of nanostructures is selected to provide a selected average index of refraction of the first region, and the spacing between adjacent nanostructures of the plurality of nanostructures is sufficiently small that the first region does not substantially diffract visible light.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2023Date of Patent: May 27, 2025Assignee: Brien Holden Vision Institute LimitedInventors: Zeev Zalevsky, Ofer Limon

Patent number: 12259565Abstract: An optical processor is presented for applying optical processing to a light field passing through a predetermined imaging lens unit. The optical processor comprises a pattern in the form of spaced apart regions of different optical properties. The pattern is configured to define a phase coder, and a dispersion profile coder. The phase coder affects profiles of Through Focus Modulation Transfer Function (TFMTF) for different wavelength components of the light field in accordance with a predetermined profile of an extended depth of focusing to be obtained by the imaging lens unit. The dispersion profile coder is configured in accordance with the imaging lens unit and the predetermined profile of the extended depth of focusing to provide a predetermined overlapping between said TFMTF profiles within said predetermined profile of the extended depth of focusing.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2023Date of Patent: March 25, 2025Assignee: Brien Holden Vision Institute LimitedInventors: Zeev Zalevsky, Alex Zlotnik, Ido Raveh, Shai Ben-Yaish, Ofer Limon, Oren Yehezkel, Karen Lahav
