[0025] The accompanying drawings, which form a part hereof, show examples of the disclosure. It is to be understood that the examples shown in the drawings and / or discussed herein are non-exclusive and that there are other examples of how the disclosure may be practiced.VTN6187USNP1

[0026] It is to be understood that both the following general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive. Methods and systems for assessing suitability for a vision correction including contact lenses, PALs or IOLS are described.

[0027] As people age, the eye becomes less able to accommodate and focus at near. The loss of accommodation with age is known as presbyopia. The average onset age of presbyopia is around 42 and everyone is affected by presbyopia by the age of 55. Multifocal contact lenses (MFCLs) are often used to give presbyopes functional vision for near, intermediate and distant objects. There are about 2 billion presbyopes around the world, yet MFCL penetration is below 5%. Also, approximately 5 million contact lens wearers aged 40 and above drop out of contact lenses annually. The lack of penetration of MFCLs is driven by several factors including:Financial incentives motivate eye care practitioners (ECPs) to prescribe progressive spectacles over MFCLs.Fitting of MFCLs sometimes consumes too much chair time. Success with MFCLs is perceived as low.People (e.g., users, subjects, patients, contact wearers, etc.) are not aware of MFCLs and are not familiar with the vision that MFCLs provide.

[0028] The factors listed above diminish a person’s opportunity and motivation to try MFCLs.

[0029] In many instances, an ECP defers initiating conversations about aging and presbyopia until a person has symptoms. Hence, 40+ year old contact lens wearers are likely to stop using contact lenses prior to trying MFCLs. In another situation, people are not aware that MFCLs exist or can address distance and near vision symptoms. Moreover, managing expectations is an art and the approach varies between ECPs. The ECP skills in managing expectations has a positive or negative influence on the breadth of potential candidates that may opt in to try MFCLs as an option for presbyopia correction.

[0030] Further, experience in fitting MFCLs varies tremendously between ECPs. Hence, capability or lack of capability and experience in fitting MFCLs has a significant or perceived impact on chair time. Thus, a substantial proportion of ECP’s elect not to offer MFCLs as an option for their contact lens wearing population due to lack of confidence in the outcome, or due to fear of negative reputation if users are dissatisfied with the outcome. Thus, many ECPs prefer to offer other solutions such as reading glasses or Progressive Addition Lenses (PALs) to address users near vision needs.VTN6187USNP1

[0031] This begs the question, how do ECPs determine patient suitability for a presbyopic correction? How do the ECPs determine which option is best for each user? Currently, ECPs typically ask about lifestyle and profession in an effort to assess motivations, personality, and visual demands to make a recommendation on the mode of correction - contact lens, PAL, or reading glasses. Typically, the assessment is performed in one environment. For example, the assessment may be performed in a well-lit environment, such as in an office. However, the user will wear the vision correction in environments that differ from the ECP office.

[0032] Thus, innovations are needed to improvement the process of determining presbyopic correction for each user. Improvements are needed to accurately identify a suitable vision correction and modality for a person. Successful systems and methods with these capabilities will raise awareness about presbyopic corrections, better match expectations with real-world experiences, reduce chair time needed to fit presbyopic corrections, and increase a success rate of presbyopic corrections.

[0033] A vision simulator and methods to simulate an expected real-world vision experience of an optical correction can help eye care practitioners guide users to a suitable presbyopic correction. The vision simulator causes a user to view an object that is blurred to simulate the vision experience with a particular form of optical correction (MFCL’s, monovision, etc.). The user can then assess the vision quality of images that have been convolved with a point spread function (PSF) to emulate real-world vision experience for that particular form of optical correction. Vision quality can be assessed in real-time with questionnaires or psychophysical measurements where users provide a series of responses. Optical correction is not limited to multifocal vision but may include any optical correction including monovision, modified monovision, or single vision, reading glasses, and astigmatic correction. The simulated optical correction may also be generated either with or without a filter that operates on the amplitude of the pupil function either spectrally (spectral filter), spatially (apodization filter), or spatio-spectrally (spectral apodization filter).

[0034] The vision simulator improves the process of determining a suitable presbyopic correction for each user by providing the user with an understanding of presbyopia and its impact on far, intermediate, and near vision performance, and of the benefits of MFCLs for correction of vision at far, intermediate (computer distance), and near distances.

[0035] For the ECP, the vision simulator may improve fitting efficiency, helping the ECP to find a right fit quicker, resulting in increased fit success rate, reduced chair time, and reduced number of user revisits.VTN6187USNP1

[0036] The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for assessing the simulated vision of contact lens, IOLS, or PALs are described. The present disclosure relates generally to assessing the simulated vision quality of contact lenses, IOLs, or PALs for a user by presenting a user with a left eye image and a right eye image that simulate wearing of the contact lenses, IOLs, or PALs.

[0037] As an illustrative example, an object in an image is blurred to simulate the vision experience of a patient (subject, user, contact wearer, person, etc.), corrected for distance vision, via a simulator. The user may assess the vision quality of convolved images that emulate the real-world vision experience of a user wearing an optical correction. The optical correction is not limited to multifocal vision, but may include any optical correction form including monovision, modified monovision, or single vision with or without a filter including reading glasses and astigmatic correction.

[0038] As an example, the simulator may comprise a viewing tunnel having two independent channels, one for each eye. This allows for the presentation of any or all the multifocal prescription (Rx) options including Monovision. The simulator has atrial frame holder for incorporation of distance sphero-cylindrical refraction correction via trial lenses. In addition, a prism may be added to adjust for the user’s interpupillary distance and / or phoria when needed, or the images can be scaled to user’s interpupillary distance by reducing the image size and shifting the images outwardly (right eye image to the right, and left eye image to the left) for users with larger interpupillary distance or inwardly for users with a smaller interpupillary distance.

[0039] As an example, a local or a web-based software application may be used to run a screening paradigm via the simulator and the display. Additionally, a display microphone and speaker may be used to collect feedback or scores from user related to subjective vision quality or give instructions to the user via the speaker.

[0040] As an illustrative example, a multifocal fitting guide may be integrated with a library of images that are convolved by a software model to simulate vision at various distances including distance, intermediate and near. As a further example, the point spread function (PSF) used to convolve the images may be selected to model vision from distance to near with 0.25D steps and up to 2.50D and at various luminance levels including daytime and nighttime scenes. Other steps, ranges, and modeling techniques may be used.

[0041] Aspects of the present disclosure may be embodied in a software application. The application may receive inputs such as refractive and biometric data. The input data may comprise one or more of distance optical correction including astigmatism, add needs, eyeVTN6187USNP1 dominance (or determined via device testing protocol), interpupillary distance, age, gender, previous or habitual correction, pupil size at different luminance levels. Other preference data such as percentage of time spent on distance or near activities may be used.

[0042] As described herein, a plurality of images may be generated (e.g., convolved with a point spread function). At least a portion of the images may comprise images that represent a typical real-world experience are selected to be convolved with a point spread function (PSF) that simulates multifocal optics for the user assessment of quality of vision. The scenes may be primarily representative scenes of a near, intermediate or distance object or a combination of such (i.e. a coffee store scene with combined distance, intermediate and / or near scenes). Images may be in color or grayscale and relatable to a user real -word experience. Example experiences may comprise scenes relating to a typical workday, breakfast scene, office scene, night driving, evening television watching, weekend brunch, grocery shopping, reading a book, travelling through an airport, or low light environments. Other images may be used. As an example, at least a portion of the images may be convolved with a PSF that simulates multifocal optics at the appropriate pupil size.Image Convolution:

[0043] As an example, for each optical correction (e.g., low, mid, and high add MFCLs and spherical CLs and IOLS and PALs), point spread functions (PSFs) were computed for object distances (vergences) of -2 to +3.25D in 0.25D steps. PSFs were computed using the Fourier method with a minimum size of 64x64 pixels using a model eye with a spherical aberration of +0.06 D / mm2. The chromatic aberration of the eye was assumed to be zero, so that the polychromatic PSFs were constant across the spectrum. PSFs were generated with 4 different pupil diameters, 2.0 and 2.6mm for near and distance in high luminance (400 cd / m2), and 3.4 and 4.0mm for near and distance in low luminance (20 cd / m2). The pupil diameter values selected were determined using the reported luminances as inputs to a luminance, age and spherical refraction dependent pupil model (the JJVC pupil model), using an input of Rx = - 3D and Age = 45 years. PSFs were convolved with color images after properly scaling for a 22-degree field of view (FOV) of the display. Note that displaying the images at the proper scale, a scale that matches the scale in the simulation, is required to properly reproduce the magnitude of blur expected with the lenses. Convolutions were performed separately for distance and near parts of scenes. For distance scenes, convolutions were performed for object distances (vergences) of -2.5 to +1.75D, and for near scenes, convolutions were performed for object distances (vergences) of -2.0 to 3.25D. Near scenes included transparency and near objects differed in position between the left and right eye images toVTN6187USNP1 impart binocular disparity. When viewed in the stereo-viewer, this disparity created a sense of depth so that the near component of the scene appeared closer to the observer. It is noted that, in a future manifestation, the convolutions could be conducted in real-time permitting use of user specific eye models, either representing averages for user having certain traits (age, Rx, pupil size, accommodative amplitude) or from direct measurements of individual user wavefronts. Also, the PSFs could be adjusted to account for the double-pass nature of the image presentation in an effort to compensate for the fact that the image will be blurred twice, once by the convolution and a second time after passing through the user’s optics.

[0044] Image Selection:

[0045] The images and / or scenes were selected to be:Relevant to presbyopia - pick everyday real-world scenarios where presbyopes tend to notice their condition.Engaging - although the images depict everyday scenarios, try to add an element of interest.Important - what a user tries to see / read matters e.g. the flight number.Relatable - to life, identity, and culture - try to make the images depict scenes as culturally neutral as possible.

[0046] Other metrics and selection criteria may be used.

[0047] Various image designs may be used. As a non-limiting example, image design guidelines may include:Canvas size (66mm x 71.2mm), or scaled appropriately to the screen size. Include text with a range of sizes, from around 20 / 20 to around 20 / 50. Only use horizontal text orientation.Have a combination of both short and long words / sentences / paragraphs.No motion blur or glare in the images.‘Not too much going on’ . . .nor too little.No distorted text angles - it helps to create a ‘flat canvas’ within the image on which to write text e.g. avoid book folds.Have a combination of low light and high light scenes and reduce contrast slightly in the low light scenes.Leave some ‘dead space’ between near and far elements to avoid highlighting the lack of need for accommodation.Generally, use the Optician Sans font (professionally used for Snellen charts). Use Open Sans font for lower case letters.VTN6187USNP120 / 20 text should not be bolded to prevent it from becoming pixelated.Make sure the spacing between letters is not too tight (3 Opt apart).Use text and background color with high contrast (although incorporate some variety vs. plain black on white).Avoid placing text near the bottom comers of the image.

[0048] Images may exhibit certain types of correction, including, but not limited to:Best Distance Sphere, i.e. Single vision correction. An example of a Presbyopic patient that is corrected for distance vision only, including astigmatism, but starts to notice blur symptoms at near vergence.Best near sphere, i.e. reading glasses. Almost a 1 / 3 of presbyopic patients utilize reading glasses to address symptoms of presbyopia.Monovision correction with contact lenses only. Also, a significant proportion of presbyopes are currently corrected with Monovision. This is the case where the dominant eye is corrected for distance and the non-dominant eye is corrected for near vision.Single vision IOLS and multifocal IOLS along with PALs are other forms of vision correction for presbyopes.

[0049] One goal of the incorporation of the above corrections is to ground the patient with the tool, images and their habitual correction in the viewer tool. Scoring of habitual correction image clarity at distance and near will also allow the patient and ECP to compare the MF correction performance to the patient habitual to demonstrate MF performance improvements.

[0050] Multifocal and modified monovision correction. Based on patient, distance Rx, and add need, the software then recommends a starting pair of multifocal lenses and retrieves from the image library the correct image.

[0051] The system may be programmed to simulate one or more fit guides including the distance and near vision enhancements steps.

[0052] The software - based on the add need of the subject - is programmed to select the correct multifocal add lens and to display the corresponding images.

[0053] In addition, if the patient scores low on distance image clarity, the operator can choose "distance enhancement” from the drop-down menu and the software is programmed to follow the next steps in the fitting guide. This feature eliminates the potential error in fitting andVTN6187USNP1 gives the patient an opportunity to select the correction that is most suitable to them as would be reflected by the image quality score.

[0054] During testing, daytime and / or nighttime images are presented to the patient for vision clarity assessment. Each image contains objects at various distances but objects at distance and near are prominent. To ground the patient with each image and with their vision performance, the subject can be probed to read text of various VA equivalent characters on the distance and near image. Then the patient can be asked to score image quality for each by scoring questions from zero (0) to 10 with 10 being very clear and zero (0) being not clear. Other scoring metrics and ranges may be used. The scores may be presented in a performance tracker such as a graphical performance tracker (e.g., spider chart, heptagon performance tracker, or other presentation) to compare habitual to MF correction performance. Other trackers may be used. The questions may include but are not limited to:Rate the clarity of the daytime distance image. Rate the clarity of the daytime near image. Rate the overall image daytime clarity.Rate the clarity of the nighttime distance image. Rate the clarity of the nighttime near image. Rate the overall image nighttime clarity. Rate the overall vision satisfaction.The Testing ParadigmUser expectations management and conversation starter:

[0055] To demonstrate the benefits of an optical correction method, such as multi-focal (MF) lenses, PALs, IOLS, etc., and to allow patients to opt in to considering the optical correction method, the operator may first demonstrate the patient habitual correction, i.e distance Rx, reading glasses and / or monovision. The patient will then score the quality of the vision with the habitual correction.

[0056] Then the operator can demonstrate the benefits of the optical correction method to the patient following the recommended fitting guide.

[0057] A graphical comparison of habitual vision score(s) vs. vision score(s) associated with the optical correction method can then be presented to the patient showing the performance differences between the two modes of correction.

[0058] A patient that is satisfied with their potential vision associated with the optical correction method may elect to initiate conversations about the optical correction methodVTN6187USNP1 with an ECP and they may decide to try the optical correction method, such as MFCLs, PALs, IOLS, etc.Fitting efficiency:

[0059] If a patient is not fully satisfied with either their distance and / or near vision clarity, as shown by the graphical score or if the patient verbalizes their dissatisfaction, then a fit assessment can be followed based on a fitting guide (such as a multifocal fitting guide, for example) comprising recommendations for improved distance and / or near vision.

[0060] If the patient is then satisfied and considers being fit with the optical correction method (such as MF lenses), then the assessed fit selected can be recommended to the ECP to help increase fit success, reduce chair time and number of revisits to the ECP office.Evidence based Screening:

[0061] Typically, ECP’s screen patients likelihood to be satisfied with vision quality associated with the optical correction method (such as MF lenses) based on the ECP’s subjective assessment of patient vision demand. However, the above testing paradigm is more objective as the patient will be judging the quality of their vision prior to committing to trying the optical correction method. As importantly, this can be done without wasting chair time from an ECP perspective. The tool can be operated by staff and / or ECP’s with minimal training required.

[0062] As an example, a predictive model can be developed based on real world data utilizing the graphical vision scores and patient record of purchasing lenses. The predictive model can then be utilized to predict likelihood of patient satisfaction.

[0064] Fig. 1 shows an example image 100 according to the systems and methods described herein. The image may comprise a foreground image 110. The foreground image 110 may comprise a near vision environment. The foreground image 110 may comprise first text 115. The first text 115 may comprise near vision text. For example, the foreground image 110 may comprise an object typically held by a user, such as a holdable menu, a screen of a smart device, a card, a book, a passport, a ticket, etc. The foreground image 110 may comprise an object typically closer to a user when being read, such as a car dashboard, a street sign, etc. Characters in the first text 115 may comprise Optician Sans font. The foreground image 110 may have been made with a foreground reference image. Characters in text of the foreground reference image may be replaced by Optician Sans font in the first text 115 in the foreground image 110. Characters in the first text 115 may correspond to a visual acuity value, such as 20 / 20, 20 / 40, etc. A first blurring effect may be applied to the foreground image 110,VTN6187USNP1 including the first text 115, to correspond to at least one optical attribute of a contact lens, PAL, IOL, or other vision correction. The at least one optical attribute of a contact lens, multifocal contact lens, PAL, IOL, or other vision correction, may comprise one or more of spherical value, cylindrical value, add power value, or an axis value. Different versions of the foreground image 110 may be made where a blurring effect applied to a version corresponds to at least one optical attribute of the contact lens, PAL, IOL, or other vision correction.

[0065] As a non-limiting example, the full through focus PSF (point spread function) may be used as a blur kernel for any depth in a scene. For illustration, a plenoptic camera may capture the full light field of the scene and can therefore infer depth of every pixel. With that information, and using the depth of one or more pixels in an image, one may implement a blur kernel that varies spatially across the image so that it matches the through focus performance for any vision correction and eye model pair.

[0066] The image may comprise a background image 120. The background image 120 may comprise a distance vision environment. The background image 120 may comprise second text 125. The second text 125 may comprise distance vision text. For example, the background image 120 may comprise an object typically seen and / or read at distance by a user, such as a menu behind a counter, a screen of a television, a billboard, a highway sign, a listing of flights on a board, etc. Characters in the second text 125 may comprise Optician Sans font. The background image 120 may have been made with a background reference image. Characters in text of the background reference image may be replaced by Optician Sans font in the second text 125 in the background image 120. Characters in the second text 125 may correspond to a visual acuity value, such as 20 / 20, 20 / 40, etc. A second blurring effect may be applied to the background image 120, including the second text 125, to correspond to the at least one optical attribute of the contact lens, PAL, IOL, or other vision correction.

A system comprising: one or more processors configured to: receive an indication of at least one optical attribute; present a left eye image to a left eye of a user, wherein the left eye image emulates vision associated with the at least one optical attribute; present a right eye image to a right eye of the user, wherein the right eye image emulates the vision associated with the at least one optical attribute; receive a satisfaction score of the vision associated with the at least one optical attribute from the user; and predict a likelihood of satisfaction with multifocal contact lenses, interocular lens (IOL), or progressive addition lens (PAL) comprising the at least one optical attribute based on the satisfaction score.

54. The system of claim 53, wherein the left eye image and the right eye image comprise a background image and a foreground image, and wherein the satisfaction score is based on at least a satisfaction with near vision based on the foreground image and a satisfaction with distance vision based on the background image.

55. The system of claim 53, wherein the predicting a likelihood of satisfaction with multifocal contact lenses, IOLS, or PALs comprising the at least one optical attribute based on the satisfaction score comprises using a model trained on previous satisfaction scores and previous assessments of satisfaction with contact lenses, IOLs or PALs.

56. The system of claim 53, wherein the at least one optical attribute comprises at least one of spherical value, cylindrical value, add power value, or an axis value.
