    Abstract: Particular embodiments disclosed herein provide an apparatus and corresponding methods for guiding ophthalmic surgery and enabling a surgeon to switch, after initiating surgery, between a primary treatment plan and one or more backup plans. Switching between a first plan and a second plan may be performed while omitting presentation of steps of the second plan compatible with implemented steps of the first plan. A treatment plan may include guides imposed on a live video of an eye of the patient that has been registered with respect to a pre-operative image. When switching between plans, initiating registration with respect to the pre-operative image is omitted. A treatment plan may define steps for placement of an IOL such as incision, rhexis, LRI, crystalline lens removal, placement of an IOL, alignment of a toric IOL, and post-operative data collection. Upon switching between first and second, previously implemented compatible steps are omitted from presentation of the second plan.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide an ophthalmic measurement device. The device comprises one or more ophthalmic measurement features, configured to generate a measurement for an anatomical characteristic of an eye of a patient, and a user interface, configured to enable a medical practitioner to interact with the ophthalmic measurement device and a memory. The device also comprises a hardware processor configured to: determine whether the measurement satisfies measurement criteria based on comparing the measurement with the measurement criteria, upon determining that the measurement does not satisfy the measurement criteria, cause the one or more ophthalmic measurement features to generate a new measurement for the anatomical characteristic, determine whether the new measurement satisfies the measurement criteria based on comparing the new measurement with the measurement criteria, and, upon determining that the new measurement satisfies the measurement criteria, cause the user interface to display the new measurement.
