Abstract

See full text

A method of performing a cataract procedure may include the steps of: imaging one or more corneal marks created by a corneal procedure, determining corneal location information regarding a location of a treatment region of the corneal procedure based on the imaged corneal marks, and placing laser pulses for a cataract surgery using the corneal location information. A corresponding ophthalmic laser system may include an imaging system to image a corneal region of an eye, an image analyzer to facilitate a determination of corneal location information based on one or more image provided by the imaging system, and a surgical laser system to place laser pulses into a lens of the eye using the corneal location information. The imaging system may include an ophthalmic coherence tomographic (OCT) system.
