Near infrared illumination for surgical procedure
Systems, devices, and methods for surgical illumination and imaging of ophthalmologic structures within a human eye are disclosed. In various embodiments, an emitter, imaging sensor, and a system control image processor are configured to irradiate ophthalmologic structures with near infrared light, detect near-infrared scatter from the irradiated ophthalmologic structures and visible light in real-time and generate or otherwise cause an image to be displayed on the user display that includes the detected near-infrared scatter from the irradiated ophthalmologic structures displayed in real-time. In one or more embodiments, the image is a virtual image of the irradiated ophthalmologic structures generated at least based on near-infrared light scattering coefficients of the irradiated ophthalmologic structures. In certain embodiments, the image displayed on the user display includes the detected near-infrared scatter from the irradiated ophthalmologic structures overlaid on a real-time view from a surgical microscope.
Visualization system for visualizing of a three-dimensional target region of an object
A system for visualizing a three-dimensional target area of an object with a measuring device which determines a distance of a surgical instrument in a target area with respect to a predetermined structure in the target area, a display unit for representing the views, and a control unit. The control unit controls the display unit such that the display unit is in a first display mode when a determined distance is greater than a predetermined first limit value, and switches from the first display mode into a second display mode when the determined distance changes from being greater than a predetermined second limit value, which is smaller than or equal to the predetermined first limit value, to smaller than the predetermined second limit value.
