Laser methods and systems for addressing conditions of the lens
Systems and methods for performing laser cataract surgery, for using a biometric system to determine a material property of a structure of the eye, laser pulses in a laser shot pattern having different powers. A therapeutic laser, and laser delivery system having the capability to vary the power of the laser beam.
1. A system for performing laser cataract surgery comprising a means to determine a material property of a structure of the eye, wherein the structure comprises a cataract and the material property comprises one of a plurality of predetermined cataract grades and a means for providing a therapeutic laser pattern base at least in part on a determined material property, wherein the laser pattern is predetermined for the cataract grade; and, wherein the plurality of cataract grades is selected from a group consisting of five grades; wherein grade one consists of a cataract with no detectable nucleus, grade two consists of a cataract wherein the nucleus is detectable, but not dense, grade three consists of a cataract with a dense nucleus, grade four consists of a cataract with an extremely dense nucleus, and grade five consists of a cataract wherein no light can transmit through the material.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the system further comprises a wireless network and has access to a patient's EMR, and can automatically bill the patient, and their insurance, for the procedure.
