The present invention provides a system and a method for measuring ocular motility of a patient. The system comprises a display unit capable of presenting at least one target; a blocking unit configured and operable to selectively block/unblock at least one target in a field of view of at least one eye of the patient; a camera unit comprising at least one imaging element configured and operable to generate at least two image data indicative of at least one eye condition; and a processing unit connected to the blocking unit, to the display unit and to the camera unit, the processing unit being configured for performing the following steps: (a) displaying at least one target, for at least one eye (b) receiving image data indicative of at least one eye's condition from the camera unit, (c) controlling the blocking unit to block/unblock at least one target in the field of view of at least one eye of the patient, (d) detecting a change in at least one eye's condition, (e) displacing the target for at least one eye; and repeating steps (a)-(e) until no change in the eye's condition is measured to thereby determine at least one ocular motility parameter.

System and method for measuring ocular motility

An apparatus for screening, treatment, monitoring and/or assessment of visual impairments, comprising electronic means for simultaneously applying two separate and unrelated processing methods to images presented to a patient's eyes: a first processing method being applied to an non-amblyopic eye (the eye with the better vision), and a second processing method being applied to an amblyopic eye (the weaker eye, or the impaired eye). A method for screening, treatment, monitoring and/or assessment of visual impairments, comprising: a. defining a starting point, wherein differences between a patient's eyes are completely, or as closely as practically possible, corrected, to enable two identical or similar images to be transferred to the brain from the patient's eyes; b. defining an ending point, wherein there is no correction applied to any of the patient's eyes; c. defining a screening, treatment, monitoring and/or assessment plan, for initially applying correction to images according to the starting point, then gradually reducing the correction, at a controlled and predetermined rate, towards the ending point; and d. applying the plan to images presented to the patient's eyes, while monitoring patient's performance.

Screening apparatus and method

Disclosed are methods and devices useful in the field of image processing and display Disclosed are also methods and devices useful in the field of ophthalmology and, in some particular embodiments, useful for the non-invasive treatment and/or prevention of refractive errors.

Method and device for treating / preventing refractive errors as well as for image processing and display

Disclosed is a wearable optical devices for a human subject, comprising: a transparent lens; a wearable frame configured to maintain the lens in front of an eye of a human subject; a transparent pixelated active optical element where the pixels of the active optical element have an optical property with a changeable value; an eye tracker; and a controller configured to set a value for an optical property of the pixels of the active optical element so as to create an image mask through which at least some of the light reaching the feye passes through, thereby modifying the image formed on the retina of the first eye.

Method and device for treating vision impairment

A system for improving a patient's vision, comprising means for diagnosing and monitoring a deterioration in macular vision or macular vision loss in the patient's eye, and means for augmenting the use of a preferred retinal location (PRL) and eccentric fixation in case the deterioration in macular vision or macular vision loss was detected. A method for improving a patient's vision, comprising: diagnosing and monitoring a deterioration in macular vision or macular vision loss in the patient's eye; and augmenting the use of a preferred retinal location (PRL) and eccentric fixation in case the deterioration in macular vision or macular vision loss was detected.

Method and system for treating of visual impairment associated with misalignment between eyes of a patient is described. The invention allows to obtain electronically of an image of an object at which one eye of the patient is staring, calculating angular deviation between staring direction of this eye and the second eye and displaying before the second eye the image after it has been electronically processed so as to correct the angular deviation and to obtain the image, which would be perceptible by the brain as a single three dimensional stereoscopic image.

Method and system for treatment of visual impairment

An optical head for an endoscope is fitted with an imaging system comprising a solid state imaging sensor and with an illuminating system comprising illuminating means, e.g. LED's. At least one illuminating means is defined by a parameter, which value is different from the value of the same parameter of the remaining illuminating means. Among the parameters are luminous intensity, luminous intensity distribution angle, and direction of the longitudinal axis of the illuminating means.

Optical head for endoscope

The present invention relates generally to the field of endoscopy and specifically to endoscopic apparatus used for endoscopic procedures during which a flexible tube is inserted into the rectum and colon for examination of the colon interior for abnormalities. More particularly, the present invention refers to a control system for supplying a fluid medium, e.g. air, carbon dioxide, water, to the endoscope.

Versatile control system for supplying fluid medium to endoscope

A control system for supplying fluid medium to an endoscopic apparatus which comprises an operation handle and an insertion tube provided with an insufflation channel, an irrigation channel and a suction channel extending therealong. The control system is provided with a system control unit with at least one source of a first fluid medium, with a source of a second fluid medium, with a source of vacuum and with a multifunctional connector for bringing the operation handle in fluid and electrical communication with the system control unit. The source of the first fluid medium and the source of the second fluid medium are simultaneously connectable to and disconnectable from the insufflation channel and the irrigation channel.
