Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Devices, systems, and methods that facilitate optical analysis, particularly for the diagnosis and treatment of refractive errors of the eye. An optical diagnostic method for an eye includes obtaining a sequence of aberration measurements of the eye, identifying an outlier aberration measurement of the sequence of aberration measurements, and excluding the outlier aberration measurement from the sequence of aberration measurements to produce a qualified sequence of aberration measurements. The sequence of aberrations measurements can be obtained by using a wavefront sensor. An optical correction for the eye can be formulated in response to the qualified sequence of aberration measurements.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An optical diagnostic method for only one single eye having a pupil, the method comprising: employing a wavefront measurement device to obtain a sequence of aberration measurements of the only one eye; identifying an outlier aberration measurement of the sequence of aberration measurements, comprising identifying a post-blink aberration measurement that follows a blink of the only one eye by less than a predetermined amount of time, which includes at least…
