Q. What does "Getting Windows ready" mean? 

When Windows updates occur, it can be frustrating for all. Controlled by Microsoft, these updates are required for the security of your system and occur without notice. Windows updates occur in two phases. First, they download to your RightEye device while it's on. Then, when the device shuts down, it installs the updates and says "Getting Windows ready."

To keep disruptions to a minimum, we recommend shutting down your RightEye system nightly so the updates occur while not in use. It is safe to leave the system on the "Getting Windows ready" screen overnight - it will power off automatically once the updates are installed.

If the "Getting Windows ready" screen persists for more than two hours and you need to use the system, you can hold down the Power button on the top right side of your machine for at least 10 seconds to manually power off the machine. On restart, it will install updates that were successfully downloaded and you should be able to test.

Q. Can you explain how the scores and percentiles are calculated? 


1. The RightEye Dynamic Vision Score (“My Score Overall”):. The Dynamic Vision Score serves as a summary of an individual’s general wellness based on their eye movement performance. Dynamic Vision scores are presented on a scale of 0-100. This score is calculated by averaging the three scores for pursuits, saccades, and fixations. 

2. Eye Movement Scores: Pursuit, Saccade, and Fixation scores are calculated utilizing their own unique algorithms using metrics from the tests specific to those eye movements. Each score is calculated independently from each other and presented on its own unique, and unrelated scale (e.g. not a linear 0-100 scale). Pursuit, Saccade, and Fixation eye movement scores and percentiles use a separate algorithm and data set than the overall Dynamic Vision score.

Q. Some patients are repeatedly asked to retake Choice Reaction Time or Discriminate Reaction Time tests. What should I do?

  1. Check your test taker's distance. If you are using an all-in-one RightEye system, they will need to be 55-60 cm at all times. If you are using a RightEye system with a separate eye-tracker, they will need to be 58-65 cm.
  2. Calibrate again before the Reaction Time tests, since users may have moved during the prior tests or while adjusting their fingers to the touch pad.
  3. Avoid glare from sunlight and other lighting. Clean your eye tracker with a microfiber cloth frequently (any dust or smudges can affect accurate eye-tracking). Make sure nothing is blocking the eye tracker.
  4. Turn off the system and restart it.
  5. Have test takers follow the on-screen instructions.
  6. Make sure test takers look at the solar system, then move their eyes out to look at the peripheral targets, then pressing the appropriate key (or not, for DRT). For guidance, there are on-screen instructions that appear before the tests start. 

If those don't work, contact our support team so we can take a look at your device. 

Q. My system won't turn on, what do I do?

If your system has been off and not on the charger, plug it into the charger and wait a few minutes, it should turn on.

If it has been plugged in and won't turn on, then:

  1. Unplug the system from the charger
  2. Lay the system on its back and remove both batteries.
  3. Reinsert the batteries (so that they click)
  4. Plug the charger back into the system.
  5. Press the power button.

Q. My system isn't responding, what do I do?

If your RightEye system is non-responsive, or not working as expected, try pressing Alt + F4 on the keyboard to restart the application. To Shut Down or Restart your RightEye system, click on the “?” menu, then click Restart PC or Shut Down PC.

Q. How do I get back to the "green screen" to begin a test?

You can press Alt + F4 at any time to return to that screen. 

Q. How can the patient receive a copy of their report?

On the Patient Information page within the RightEye application, the patient can opt to receive a copy of their assessment and will be prompted with a box to enter their email address.

After submitting the assessment, the patient will receive a link in their email directing them to our portal where they will be asked to create a password to complete their login. From there, the patient can log in to our portal at any time and view their report.

If you'd like to add a patient's email to their account after they've taken a test, go to Patient Management in the portal, navigate to their name or Patient ID and click on "Edit" to add their email address. 

Q. How do I adjust the volume on my system?

There are buttons to adjust the sound level on the right side of the system, below the power button. You can also press and hold the blue Fn key while pressing either F4 (to raise sound level) or F5 (to lower sound level). F6 mutes the system. Note: you may not see the volume bar on the screen when adjusting the sound level.
