First Claim
1. A module for use with a mobile device to measure an aberration of a patient'"'"'s eye, the module comprising:
- a light shaft having a proximal end and a distal end, the light shaft comprising a first plurality of optical components arranged to direct light along a first light path from the distal end to the proximal end, and a second plurality of optical components arranged to direct light along a second light path from the proximal end to the distal end, wherein at least a portion of the first and second light paths are coextensive;
a light source; and
a connector located at the distal end of the light shaft, the connector comprising at least one guide component for positioning the distal end of the light shaft adjacent a light detector of the mobile device, wherein, when the distal end of the light shaft is positioned adjacent to the light detector of the mobile device;
the first plurality of optical components directs light from the light source along the first light path to the proximal end of the light shaft, andthe second plurality of optical components directs light along the second light path from the distal end of the light shaft to the light detector of the mobile device.

Abstract
A module for use with a mobile device to measure an aberration of a patient'"'"'s eye includes a light shaft having a proximal end and a distal end, and a light source. The light shaft includes a first plurality of optical components arranged to direct light along a first light path from the light source to the proximal end, and a second plurality of optical components arranged to direct light along a second light path from the proximal end to a light detector of the mobile device. A connector at the distal end includes at least one guide component for positioning the distal end adjacent to the light detector. When the distal end is positioned adjacent to the light detector, the first plurality of optical components directs light along the first light path and the second plurality of optical components directs light along the second light path.

15. A method for measuring an aberration of a patient'"'"'s eye, the method comprising:
-
positioning a module adjacent to a mobile device such that a distal end of a light shaft of the module is adjacent to a light detector of the mobile device; positioning the module adjacent to the patient'"'"'s eye such that a proximal end of the light shaft is adjacent to the patient'"'"'s eye; directing light from a light source of the module through the light shaft and toward the patient'"'"'s eye; and directing light reflected from the patient'"'"'s eye through the light shaft to the light detector of the mobile device. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
