An ophthalmic stimulator for constricting a pupil of an eye comprises an irradiation control system, to generate an irradiation control signal; an irradiation source, coupled to the irradiation control system, to generate an irradiation; and an irradiation delivery system, coupled to the irradiation control system, to receive the irradiation from the irradiation source, and to deliver a patterned irradiation to an iris of the eye; wherein the irradiation control system controls at least one of the irradiation source and the irradiation delivery system with the irradiation control signal so that the patterned irradiation causes a long-term constriction of the pupil of the eye.

The present disclosure provides a system for automated fine adjustment of an ophthalmic surgery support in which an eye tracking system detects a detectable position of an eye. The direction and distance the support must be adjusted for the eye to be centered may be determined based on the detectable position. A control signal is generated and transmitted to a control device that adjusts the position of the support to center the eye. The disclosure further provides a method for automated fine adjustment of a support, which includes detecting a detectable position of an eye, determining whether the eye is centered in relation to the center of the detection field of an eye tracking system based on the detectable position, determining a direction and a distance the detectable position must be adjusted to be centered, and generating and transmitting a control signal to adjust the position of the support.

A system includes an actuator, one or more items of diagnostic equipment configured to perform ophthalmic measurement, and one or more items of treatment equipment configured to facilitate performance of an ophthalmic treatment with respect to an eye of a patient. A controller is coupled to the actuator and is configured to cause the actuator to transfer the one or more items of diagnostic equipment and the one or more items of treatment equipment into and out of a region in front of an eye of the patient. The ophthalmic treatment may be a LASIK or SMILE treatment using refractive error and/or eye geometry measured using the diagnostic equipment.

A system for reducing the physiologic strain on a surgeon and for reducing turn around time between patient surgical procedures, wherein said surgical procedures are performed successively on patients who are each disposed upon a surgical bed, by providing the ability to repeatably locate and orient surgical assistive features and patient body portions such that surgeon is presented with similar location of surgical assistive features and patient body portions from one surgical procedure to the next. Patient head location may adjusted by inflatable bladders. Patient head rotation, surgeon stool height, operating bed height, wrist rest height and other surgical assistive features are quickly adjustable so as to be repeatable from one surgical procedure to the next. Surgeon fatigue and turn around time between surgical procedures are reduced. The adjustments may be computer-controlled for repeatability and accuracy.

A platform for introducing various treatment tools through a conduit in order to treat various ocular pathologies by attaching it to a human eyeball. The platform has an axis that defines opposing anterior and posterior axial directions. The platform includes a framework formed about the axis and the framework has anterior and posterior openings at respective anterior and posterior sides. The platform includes also a hollow conduit that extends through the framework while passing through the anterior and posterior openings.
