Abstract:
An ophthalmic illumination method and system with a head-up display imaging system is provided wherein a therapeutic light is generated by a first laser light source configured to generate therapeutic light and a near-infrared wavelength of an alignment pattern is generated by a second laser light source, where the therapeutic light is directed upon an eye to be examined or treated in accordance with the alignment pattern.
Abstract:
A system and method for treating ophthalmic target tissue, including a light source for generating a beam of light, a beam delivery system that includes a scanner for generating patterns, and a controller for controlling the light source and delivery system to create a dosimetry pattern of the light beam on the ophthalmic target tissue. One or more dosage parameters of the light beam vary within the dosimetry pattern, to create varying exposures on the target tissue. A visualization device observes lesions formed on the ophthalmic target tissue by the dosimetry pattern. The controller selects dosage parameters for the treatment beam based upon the lesions resulting from the dosimetry pattern, either automatically or in response to user input, so that a desired clinical effect is achieved by selecting the character of the lesions as determined by the dosimetry pattern lesions.

Abstract:
Systems and processes are described relating to laser-based ophthalmic intervention technologies and, more specifically, to techniques for delivering reproducible amounts of laser energy to create visible and sub-visible lesions on an eye. The subject technology may provide a user with the ability to adjust the amount of energy to be delivered to the eye tissue by selecting a single numerical value. In response, the system may adjust the power and/or duration of the laser treatment beam pulse according to an operating curve determined by the system.

Abstract:
A system includes a first element configured to receive a plurality of color components that are spatially separated, wherein each of the plurality of color components comprises light of a respective wavelength, and to focus the plurality of spatially separated color components onto a first surface of a second element. The system also includes a second element having a first surface and a second surface, wherein the second element is configured to receive the plurality of color components via the first surface, to transmit to the second surface uniform light comprising the plurality of color components in a blended state, and to emit the uniform light via the second surface. The system also includes a slit lamp configured to receive the uniform light.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses for a micro-display based slit lamp illumination system are provided. A first optical element is configured to generate a micro-display image including an illuminated area. A second optical element is configured to receive the micro-display image, and focus the micro-display image upon an eye to be examined, wherein light is reflected from the eye as a result of the illuminated area.
