Adaptive optics visual simulator.
PURPOSE To develop a prototype instrument that uses adaptive optics to introduce virtually any desired aberration profile in a subject's eye. At the same time, the instrument could be used to evaluate the subject's spatial vision for each controlled aberration profile. This "aberration testing station" or "visual simulator" allows us to study the relationship between specific aberrations and vi...
متن کاملEcological optics and visual slant.
Flock's "A Possible Optical Basis for Monocular Slant Perception" is criticized as being a theory of stimuli rather than a theory of perception. To account for accurate monocular slant perception, the theory requires 9 assumptions, including the unproved ability of the eye to register random texture density. The alternative hypothesis is proposed that monocular visual slant is a function primar...
متن کاملVisual Optics: Accommodation in a Splash
Gannets are large seabirds that hunt fish from the air, making a plunge dive followed by active swimming pursuit of prey. A recent study shows that they convert from aerial to aquatic vision nearly instantly.
متن کاملVisual Optics: The Shapes of Pupils
Human eyes have circular pupils, but a great many animals have pupils that are oval or slit-shaped. These slits/ovals may be oriented vertically (as in crocodiles, vipers, cats and foxes), or horizontally (as in some rays, flying frogs, mongooses and ungulates such as sheep and hippopotami). The explanation usually given for the use of a slit pupil is that it can exclude light more effectively ...
متن کاملAdaptive optics without altering visual perception
Adaptive optics combined with visual psychophysics creates the potential to study the relationship between visual function and the retina at the cellular scale. This potential is hampered, however, by visual interference from the wavefront-sensing beacon used during correction. For example, we have previously shown that even a dim, visible beacon can alter stimulus perception (Hofer et al., 201...
