    A novel retinoscope design enables practical close-range retinoscopy. Its integrated rangefinder, using the coincident-image principle, unlocks theoretical benefits for improved eye examinations.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Optical instrumentation

    Context:

    • Close-range retinoscopy offers theoretical advantages but faces practical limitations.
    • Accurate distance measurement is crucial for effective retinoscopy.

    Purpose:

    • To introduce a new retinoscope design.
    • To overcome practical challenges in close-range retinoscopy.

    Summary:

    • This paper describes a new retinoscope incorporating an integrated rangefinder.
    • The rangefinder utilizes the coincident-image principle for precise distance determination.
    • This integration allows for the practical application of close-range retinoscopy's benefits.

    Impact:

    • Facilitates more accurate and efficient refractive error assessment.
