Abstract

A virtual reality (VR) system can be implemented for testing light sensitivity and prescribing customized LCD tinted lenses. The system can use an electronic device that includes a head-mounted display (HMD) and eye-tracking sensors. The electronic device can generate a VR user interface corresponding to a three-dimensional virtual environment and render the VR user interface on the HMD. The electronic device can simulate various lighting conditions sequentially in the VR user interface. While simulating, in real time, the electronic device can track gaze direction, blink rate, squinting, and pupillary responses for evaluating light sensitivity performance of the wearer.
