Dynamics of the near response under natural viewing conditions with an open-view sensor

Autors: Emmanuel Chirre, Pedro Prieto, and Pablo Artal
Journal: Biomedical Optics Express
Volume: Vol. 6, Issue 10
Pages: 4200-4211
Year: 2015
ISBN: 2156-7085

ABSTRACT:
We have studied the temporal dynamics of the near response (accommodation, convergence and pupil constriction) in healthy subjects when accommodation was performed under natural binocular and monocular viewing conditions. A binocular open-view multi-sensor based on an invisible […]

Wide-field optical model of the human eye with asymmetrically tilted and decentered lens that reproduces measured ocular aberrations

Journal: Optica
Authors: James Polans, Bart Jaeken, Ryan P. McNabb, Pablo Artal, Joseph A. Izatt
Volume: 2, Issue 2
Pages: 124-134
Year: 2015
ISBN: 2334-2536

Abstract
Eye models are valuable tools that can help delineate the role of anatomical parameters on visual performance and guide the design of advanced ophthalmic instrumentation. We propose an optically accurate wide-field schematic eye that reproduces the complete […]

Binocular visual performance with aberration correction as a function of light level

Autores: Christina Schwarz, Silvestre Manzanera, Pablo Artal
Revista: Journal of Vision
Volumen: 14
Paginas: 1-11
Fecha: 16-12-2014 (2014)
ISBN: 1534-7362

ABSTRACT
The extent to which monocular visual performance of subjects with normal amounts of ocular aberrations can be improved with adaptive optics (AO) depends on both the pupil diameter and the luminance for visual testing. Here, the benefit of correction of higher order aberrations for […]

Optics of the eye and its impact in vision: a tutorial

Autores: Pablo Artal
Revista: Advances in Optics and Photonics
Volumen: 6
Paginas: 340-367
Fecha: 24-09-2014 (2014)
ISBN: 1943-8206
1. Introduction
The human eye is an extremely robust, and rather simple, optical instrument. It is composed of only two positive lenses, the cornea and the crystalline lens, that project images of the world into the retina initiating the visual process. Compared with artificial optical systems, often formed by many […]
