Abstract

A method and a system provide a surgical system including a cassette, a console and an interferometric pressure sensing system coupled with the console. The cassette is for exchanging material with apatient and includes a wall and a reflector. The wall undergoes a deflection in response to a nonambient internal cassette pressure. The console is coupled with the cassette. The interferometric pressure sensing system is coupled with the console. The interferometric pressure sensing system includes a light source and a detector. The light source provides a first portion of light that is reflectedoff of the reflector and a second portion of light that bypasses the reflector. The first portion and the second portion of light are recombined to form an interference pattern. The deflection corresponds to a shift in the interference pattern detectable by the detector.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to ophthalmic surgery systems and methods. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to techniques for measuring cassette pressure in surgical systems. Background technique [0002] Ophthalmic surgery often involves removing fluid and / or tissue from the eye and replacing the removed material with a fluid such as balanced salt solution (BSS). To remove the material, a cannula connected to a suction line is inserted into the incision in the eye. The suction line is coupled to a console that includes electronics, a control system, a vacuum source such as a peristaltic pump, and a fluid source. A vacuum source provides vacuum to the suction line. The vacuum within the aspiration line causes material to flow from the eye and through the aspiration line. To maintain intraocular pressure, another cannula connected to the irrigation line or infusion line is inserted into another incision in the eye. The priming line ...
