16 results about "Blindness" patented technology

Blindness is the condition of poor visual perception. Various scales have been developed to describe the extent of vision loss and define blindness. Total blindness is the complete lack of form and visual light perception and is clinically recorded as NLP, an abbreviation for "no light perception." Blindness is frequently used to describe severe visual impairment with some remaining vision. Those described as having only light perception have no more sight than the ability to tell light from dark and the general direction of a light source. The World Health Organization defines low vision as visual acuity of less than 20/60, but equal to or better than 20/200, or visual field loss to less than 20 degrees, in the better eye with best possible correction. Blindness is defined as visual acuity of less than 20/400, or a visual field loss to less than 10 degrees, in the better eye with best possible correction. As of 2012 there were 285 million visually impaired people in the world, of which 246 million had low vision and 39 million were blind. The majority of people with poor vision are in the developing world and are over the age of 50 years.

Methods and systems for assessing night blindness using VR-based variable lighting scenarios

A virtual eye test for assessing night blindness can be conducted in a virtual reality (VR) environment. The test utilizes an electronic device equipped with a head-mounted display (HMD) and a camera. The device generates a VR user interface corresponding to a three-dimensional virtual environment and renders it on the HMD. A plurality of visual scenarios, each corresponding to a different lighting condition, are simulated within the VR interface. Using the camera, the device tracks user interactions and responses to visual stimuli presented in these various lighting scenarios. Night blindness is measured based on the tracked user interactions and responses, providing a comprehensive assessment of visual performance under different low-light conditions in a controlled, immersive environment.

This invention provides a myopia screening device. The first end of the housing is designated as the detection end for testing the subject's eyes. A visual target screen, a screening camera, and an optical path assembly are all housed within the housing. The visual target screen is located on one side wall of the housing, the optical path assembly is positioned between the detection end and the visual target screen, and the screening camera is located at the second end of the housing. The screening camera captures a light and shadow image of the subject's pupil. A processor processes and analyzes the light and shadow image captured by the screening camera. An input device communicates with the processor and inputs the image seen by the subject on the visual target screen into the processor. This invention enables not only refractive error testing but also visual acuity testing and color blindness / color weakness testing. Furthermore, this invention can estimate the subject's visual acuity based on the refractive error test results, generate a corresponding estimated visual target based on the estimated visual acuity, and quickly complete the visual acuity test, effectively shortening the visual acuity screening time.
