    Abstract: System for determining a position of a tool-point-of-interest of a tool, relative to an eye-tissue-of-interest, which includes and imager a tool-tracker and a processor. The imager acquires an image of a tissue-reference-marker. The tool-tracker determines information relating to the P&O of the tool in a reference-coordinate-system. The imager and the tool-tracker are in registration with the reference-coordinate-system. The processor determines the position of the tissue-reference-marker in the reference-coordinate-system, according to the acquired image of the tissue-reference-marker. The processor determines the P&O of the eye-tissue-of-interest in the reference-coordinate-system according to at least the position of the tissue-reference-marker and a relative position between the tissue-reference-marker and the eye-tissue-of-interest. The relative position is pre-determined from a stored-3D-model. The processor determines the position of a tool-point-of-interest in the reference-coordinate-system from the P&O of the tool in the reference-coordinate-system. The processor also determines a relative position between the tool-point-of-interest and the eye-tissue-of-interest.

    Abstract: A novel surgical lens system including a lens and a reflective element. The lens is placed on, or above, a cornea of an eye of a subject for enabling inspection of the eye. The reflective element is incorporated into the lens. The reflective element reflects a light beam toward the eye of the subject. The reflective element increases the divergence of the light beam, such that the divergence of the reflected light beam is larger than the divergence of the light beam. The light beam is emitted by a non-invasive light source positioned externally to the eye.
