VISUALIZATION OF VITREOUS FLOATERS IN THE EYE
20230157541 · 2023-05-25 ·

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.

In certain embodiments, an ophthalmic laser system that performs a laser procedure on an eye includes a laser device, an ophthalmic microscope, a y-direction motor, a user interface device, and a controller. The laser device includes a laser delivery head that directs a laser beam towards a target within the eye. The laser beam defines a z-axis, which defines an xy-plane with a y-axis that defines a y-direction. The ophthalmic microscope receives light from within the eye to provide an image of the eye. The user interface device receives instructions from a user. The controller receives an instruction from the user interface device to move the laser delivery head and the ophthalmic microscope in the y-direction, and instructs the y-direction motor to move the laser delivery head and the ophthalmic microscope in the y-direction in response to the instruction.

REFLECTOMETRY INSTRUMENT AND METHOD FOR MEASURING MACULAR PIGMENT

A reflectometry instrument includes a light source for emitting an illumination beam that illuminates the macula. A portion of the illumination beam is reflected from the macula and forms a detection beam. The detection beam is indicative of macular pigment in the macula. The instrument also includes a first mirror for reflecting the illumination beam toward the macula and for reflecting the detection beam from the macula. The instrument is configured so that the illumination beam and the detection beam remain separated between the macula and the first mirror.
