Embodiment Construction

[0016] A preferred embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawings, and like reference numerals are used to indicate like and corresponding parts of the various drawings.

[0017] figure 1 Ocular anatomy in which the improved design for ocular implants provided by the present invention may be placed is illustrated. Eye 100 includes cornea 102 , iris 104 , pupil 106 , lens 108 , lens capsule 110 , zonules, ciliary body 120 , sclera 112 , vitreous gel 114 , retina 116 , macula, and optic nerve 120 . The cornea 102 is a transparent, dome-shaped structure on the surface of the eye that acts as a window to let light into the eye. The iris 104 is the colored part of the eye known as the iris, the muscle surrounding the pupil that relaxes and contracts to control the amount of light entering the eye. The pupil 106 is the circular central opening of the iris. The lens 108 is a structure inside the eye that helps focus light on the retina. The lens capsule 110 is an elastic ba...

Abstract

An ophthalmic surgical system includes a laser light source having a laser treatment mode and an illumination mode. The laser treatment mode has a first power, and the illumination mode has a second power less than the first power. The ophthalmic surgical console also includes focusing optics operable to optically couple the laser light source to a light guide in the illumination mode.

Description

[0001] related application [0002] This application claims priority to U.S. provisional application serial number 61 / 185,756, filed June 10, 2009, and U.S. nonprovisional application serial number 12 / 755,479, filed April 7, 2010, above The content of the application is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] This invention relates to illuminators for ophthalmic surgery, and more particularly to producing intraocular illuminators suitable for illuminating the interior of the eye. Background technique [0004] Anatomically, the eye is divided into two distinct parts, namely, an anterior segment and a posterior segment. The anterior segment includes the lens and extends from the outermost layer of the cornea (corneal endothelium) to the posterior portion of the lens capsule. The posterior segment includes the part of the eye behind the lens capsule. The posterior segment extends from the anterior hyaloid face to the retina, and the posterior hyaloid face ...
