Smart Eyewear Vision Correction and Adjustment Method and System

Abstract

Open view smart eyewear is combined with a wavefront aberrometer module. The smart eyewear serves as an open view eyewear form factor and house the wavefront aberrometer module among other digital processing components and corresponding software. Alternatively, the wavefront aberrometer module is removably coupled to the smart eyewear. The wavefront aberrometer module calibrates a tunable optical element according to detected optical needs of the user. The wavefront aberrometer module automatically adjusts the wearer-user's effective visual acuity (at least refractive power) viewing through the smart eyewear. The smart eyewear apparatus can also provide clinical-quality optical measurements of wearer-users for electronic communication or transmission to an eye care professional. Alignment of open view smart eyewear, the wavefront aberrometer module, and user's eyes (line of sight) can be facilitated. Iris biometric identification can be used to associate the user-specific calibration parameters and measurements with the smart eyewear.
