Utility
Systems and Methods for Intraocular Lens Selection Using Emmetropia Zone Prediction
22 Jul 20
Systems and methods for intraocular lens (IOL) selection using emmetropia zone prediction include determining pre-operative measurements of an eye, estimating a post-operative anterior chamber depth (ACD) of an intraocular lens based on the pre-operative measurements, estimating a post-operative manifest refraction in spherical equivalent (MRSE) of the eye with the IOL implanted based on the pre-operative measurements and the estimated post-operative ACD, determining whether the eye with the IOL implanted is likely to be in an emmetropia zone based on the estimated post-operative MRSE, re-estimating the post-operative MRSE of the eye with the IOL implanted using an emmetropia zone prediction model or a non-emmetropia zone prediction model based on the emmetropia zone determining, and providing the re-estimated post-operative MRSE to a user to aid in selection of an IOL for implantation in the eye.

Apparatus for Cutting a Tissue Section of an Eye by Laser Radiation
1 Jul 20
An apparatus for cutting a tissue part of an eye by means of laser radiation includes a suction-ring unit (16) which is capable of being mounted onto the eye, with a ring axis (22), a mechanical interface unit (34) which is separate from the suction-ring unit (16), which is capable of being moved along the ring axis (22) in coupling contact with the latter, and which is capable of being mechanically coupled with optical means (70) which focus the laser radiation onto or into the tissue part (12) of the eye, and sealing means (44, 52) which upon movement of the interface unit (34) in coupling contact with the suction-ring unit (16) form a space (58) which is capable of being evacuated and which is delimited by sealing surfaces (46, 60) of the interface unit (34) and of the suction-ring unit (16) and of the sealing means (44, 52).
