Abstract

Phacoemulsification systems and associated user interfaces and methods for use in ophthalmic surgery are disclosed. In some embodiments, a touch screen display of an ophthalmic surgical console provides a graphical user interface that allows a user to both visualize and control various operating parameters of the surgical console and associated subsystems. The controllable operating parameters include, without limitation, aspiration flow rates, IV pole height, vacuum limit pressures, minimum ultrasound power, maximum ultrasound power, on-time, off-time, and / or other values associated with the operating parameters of the ophthalmic surgical console.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to surgical systems, and more particularly to phacoemulsification surgical systems including a graphical user interface that allows free-form adjustment of system parameters by the user. Background technique [0002] The human eye is subject to various diseases that cause mild deterioration and result in impaired vision. While contact lenses and glasses can compensate for some ailments, others require eye surgery. In general, ophthalmic surgery is classified into posterior segment medical procedures such as vitreoretinal surgery and anterior segment medical procedures such as cataract surgery. More recently, combined anterior and posterior medical procedures have been developed. [0003] Surgical instruments used in eye surgery can serve various functions depending on the surgical procedure and the surgical instrument. For example, a surgical system can expedite cataract surgery (e.g., phacoemulsification, ca...
