    摘要: The invention is directed to a system and methods for automatically determining a multiple number of viable treatment plans for correcting a patient's vision via photoablative refractive surgery. Embodiments of the invention rely on selected various diagnostic input about the patient's eye to classify the eye as being particularly suitable for treatment by several different treatment algorithms. The invention is further directed to the simultaneous presentation of various treatment plans based upon selected input data and available treatment algorithms that can be reviewed, modified, and ultimately selected for application. A system embodiment according to the invention includes a component for receiving the diagnostic input data about the patient's vision, for analyzing the input data and determining the potentially usable treatment algorithms, and for processing the potentially usable treatment algorithms based upon the input data, and a component for displaying the multilevel graphical user interface which facilitates review, modification, and selection of viable treatment plans for correcting the patient's vision. The system is further operably associated with a storage medium for storing calculated and selected treatment plans which include executable instructions for a photoablative laser component of the system to deliver a selected treatment plan to the patient's eye.

    摘要: An ophthalmic instrument for use with a subject's eye, comprising an interferometer having a test arm in which the subject's eye is to be positioned and a reference arm, the reference arm including a mirror adapted to be positioned such that the reference arm has a predetermined length, and an ophthalmic apparatus coupled to the interferometer such that, by altering a test arm length, a length between the ophthalmic apparatus and the eye is also altered. The mirror is positioned to achieve the predetermined length and a length of the test arm is adjusted such that interference between the light reflected from the eye and the light reflected from the mirror is achieved, the ophthalmic apparatus is optically aligned with the eye.
