Abstract
Disclosed herein are methods and apparatus for making a determination about an eye comprising detecting light reflected out of an eye of a subject from a retina of the eye of the subject and making a determination about the eye of the subject based upon the reflected light.
Claims23
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a computing device, one or more images of an eye of a subject, wherein non-relevant reflections from a cornea and a lens of the eye of the subject are managed while capturing the one or more images;
- determining, using the computing device:
- an overall intensity of light from a plurality of pixels located within at least a portion of a pupil captured in the at least one of the one or more images, wherein the plurality of pixels comprise red, green, and blue pixels;
- determining an average red intensity from the plurality of pixels located within the at least a portion of the pupil captured in the at least one of the one or more images;
- determining an average blue intensity from the plurality of pixels located within the at least a portion of a pupil captured in the at least one of the one or more images;
- and
- determining using the average red intensity, the average blue intensity and the determined overall intensity an optical quality of the eye.

An apparatus comprised of:
- a computing device comprising at least a processor, wherein the computing device receives one or more images of an eye of a subject, wherein non-relevant reflections from a cornea and a lens of the eye of the subject are managed while capturing the one or more images,
- wherein the computing device determines:
- an overall intensity of light from a plurality of pixels located within at least a portion of a pupil captured in the at least one of the one or more images, wherein the plurality of pixels comprise red, green, and blue pixels;
- an average red intensity from the plurality of pixels located within the at least a portion of the pupil captured in the at least one of the one or more images;
- an average blue intensity from the plurality of pixels located within the at least a portion of a pupil captured in the at least one of the one or more images;
- and
- determines, using the average red intensity, the average blue intensity and the determined overall intensity an optical quality of the eye.
