摘要: A device for determining biometric variables of the eye, as are incorporated in the calculation of intraocular lenses including a multi-point keratometer and an OCT arrangement. The keratometer measurement points are illuminated telecentrically and detected telecentrically and the OCT arrangement is designed as a laterally scanning swept-source system with a detection region detecting the whole eye over the whole axial length thereof. The multi-point keratometer ensures that a sufficient number of keratometer points are available for measuring the corneal surface. By contrast, telecentricity ensures that the positioning inadequacies of the measuring instrument in relation to the eye to be measured do not lead to a local mismatch of the reflection points. The swept-source OCT scan detects the whole eye over the length thereof so that both anterior chamber structures and retina structures can be detected and a consistent whole eye image can be realized.

摘要: The invention relates to a method for controlling a semiconductor-laser-diode-based SS-interferometer system (SS=swept source), which allows for a wide range of application and is suitable for use in ophthalmology, in particular for imaging and for determining biometric measurement values of the eye. In the method according to the invention, by means of periodic current modulation, the operation of single semiconductor laser diodes is designed such that a highly coherent spectral laser line can be adjusted with a highest possible repetition rate and over a wide wavelength range. In addition, the following parameters: centre wavelength, sweep rate, sweep range, optical power in the eye and coherence length are adjusted such that the method is suitable for imaging and biometric applications via whole-eye scans. The proposed semiconductor-laser-diode-based SS-interferometer system is provided, in particular, for biometric measuring of the eye. Given that the embodiments are based preferably on optical, coherence tomographic scan images, the main application lies in opthalmological diagnostics, treatment and the preparation of surgical procedures and follow-up thereof.

摘要: A light source that projects a fixation mark into the eve and an image sensor that receives light that has been reflected, diffracted or scattered from the cornea, lens and retina of the eve. A digital camera that captures HDR images of the eve predominantly only with activated fixing illumination. A control unit is designed to detect reflections, as well as diffracted and scattered light of the fixing mark of eve structures in the images transferred from the image sensor and to optimize, evaluate and display the captured HDR images of the eye on a display unit. The invention is provided for different ophthalmological devices, but, in principle, it can be applied to other technical fields in which additional information of the object to be imaged is generated and correspondingly evaluated via the capturing of HDR images.
