This work explores precision limits in two-photon Hong-Ou-Mandel interferometry under non-perfect visibility. A theoretical model is developed and experimentally validated using different quantum states. A remarkable ratio of 0.97 between the experimental precision and the quantum limit is observed, establishing a new benchmark in the field.
