Display for ophthalmic surgical console with user-selectable sectors
View Patent ↗An ophthalmic surgical system includes a display device and a user interface. The display device generates a display on an image of a patient's eye comprising a plurality of non-overlapping display sectors. Each display sector displays one of a plurality of user-selectable surgical parameters. A user interface receives a user selection of one or more of the user-selectable surgical parameters to be displayed.
1. A method of displaying surgical parameters for a phacoemulsification surgery system, comprising:
receiving a selection of at least two user-selectable surgical parameters for a phacoemulsification surgery; and
generating a display on an image of a patient's eye during the phacoemulsification surgery comprising a plurality of non-overlapping display sectors, each display sector displaying one of the plurality of user-selectable surgical parameters.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying a selection screen to the user.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the step of generating the display further comprises displaying a target axis for astigmatic correction using a toric lens in the display on the image of the patient's eye.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining a location for an incision and generating the display on the image of the patient's eye including an incision guide indicating the location for the incision.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user-selectable surgical parameters include a vacuum pressure.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user-selectable surgical parameters include a power level.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user-selectable surgical parameter indicates activity of a laser source.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the user-selectable surgical parameters is displayed as a variable gauge.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the display is generated by a display device, the display device generating the display as a lighted display.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the display is generated by a display device, the display device projecting the display onto the patient's eye.
11. A method of displaying surgical parameters on an ophthalmic surgical system, comprising:
receiving a selection of at least two user-selectable surgical parameters; and
generating a display on an image of a patient's eye comprising a plurality of non-overlapping display sectors, each display sector displaying one of the plurality of user-selectable surgical parameters, wherein at least one of the user-selectable surgical parameters is displayed as a variable gauge and wherein the variable gauge is a bubble gauge.
12. The method of claim 11 , further comprising displaying a selection screen to the user.
13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the generated display further comprises a target axis for astigmatic correction using a toric lens.
14. The method of claim 11 , further comprising determining a location for an incision and generating the display on the image of the patient's eye including an incision guide indicating the location for the incision.
15. The method of claim 11 , wherein the user-selectable surgical parameters include a vacuum pressure.
16. The method of claim 11 , wherein the user-selectable surgical parameters include a power level.
17. The method of claim 11 , wherein the user-selectable surgical parameter indicates activity of a laser source.
18. The method of claim 11 , wherein at least one of the user-selectable surgical parameters is displayed as a variable gauge.
