Visualization of vitreous floaters in the eye

ActiveUS12558262B2Laser surgeryOthalmoscopesVitreous FloaterEyepiece
In certain embodiments, an ophthalmic surgical system for viewing an eye includes an ophthalmic microscope and a laser device. The ophthalmic microscope receives light reflected or scattered backwards from within the vitreous of the eye in order to provide an image of an object within the vitreous. The ophthalmic microscope includes a slit illumination source (which includes a light source and an optical element), a spectral filter, and oculars. The slit illumination source illuminates the eye with light, where the light source provides the light, and the optical element directs the light into the eye. The spectral filter filters out red spectral components of the light. The oculars receive the light from the eye in order to provide the image of the object. The laser device generates a laser beam to direct towards the object within the eye.

Determining radiant exposure at the retina during an ophthalmic procedure

In certain embodiments, an ophthalmic laser system includes a laser device, an ophthalmic microscope, a z-direction sensor, and a controller. The laser device directs a laser beam towards a target within an eye. The ophthalmic microscope receives light from a focal point within the eye to provide an image of an object at the focal point. The z-direction sensor determines the z-position corresponding to the focal point of the ophthalmic microscope. The controller determines a position Z0, the z-position where the focal point of the ophthalmic microscope is at the retina of the eye; determines a position Z, the z-position where the focal point of the ophthalmic microscope is at the target within the eye; calculates a target-to-retina distance ΔZ according to a difference between the position Z and the position Z0; and calculates a radiant exposure He at the retina according to the target-to-retina distance ΔZ.

Stress estimation during ophthalmic treatments

PCT designated stageWO2026078540A1Eye surgeryOthalmoscopesStress estimationOphthalmology department
An ophthalmic surgical system (100) includes an ophthalmic microscope (102) including a first camera (204a) and a second camera (204b). A controller (214) coupled to the first camera and the second camera receives a current pair of images including a current representations of a retina (300) of a patient; obtains a current three- dimensional representation of the retina from the current pair of images; determines deformation of the retina by evaluating the current three-dimensional representation relative to a reference representation of the retina; determines (414) stress on the retina according to the deformation; and outputs (418) guidance according to the stress. Stress may be determined using FEM and may use velocity and acceleration of the deformation. Guidance may include a graphical representation of the stress or a vector along which force should be exerted. Deformation may be detected (412) using a mesh (312) projected (406) onto the retina.
