Embodiment Construction

[0018] In the following description, details are set forth by way of example to facilitate a discussion of the disclosed subject matter. However, those of ordinary skill in the art should appreciate that the disclosed embodiments are exemplary and not exhaustive of all possible embodiments.

[0019] The present disclosure provides systems and methods for using augmented reality during ophthalmic surgery. In some cases, these systems use augmented reality devices such as headsets and / or glasses to display images from ophthalmic microscopes. For example, augmented reality glasses may include one or more transparent or translucent lenses, and an optical system that projects images into each eye by reflecting separate images off the lenses. These images are interpreted as digital images, three-dimensional (3D) images, such as holograms, that are added to the operator's normal field of view through lenses. In some cases, digital images or 3D images are translucent. Thus, the pro...

Abstract

The disclosure provides a system including an augmented reality device communicatively coupled to an imaging system of an ophthalmic microscope. The augmented reality device may include a lens configured to project a digital image, a gaze control configured to detect a focus of an eye of an operator, and a dimming system communicatively coupled to the gaze control and the outer surface and including a processor that receives a digital image from the imaging system, projects the digital image on the lens, receives a signal from the gaze control regarding the focus of the eye of the operator, and transitions the outer surface of the augmented reality device between at least partially transparent to opaque based on the received signal. The disclosure further includes a method of performing ophthalmic surgery using an augmented reality device and a non-transitory computer readable medium able to perform augmented reality functions.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to ophthalmic surgery and surgical equipment, and more particularly to systems and methods for augmented reality ophthalmic surgical microscope projection. Background technique [0002] In ophthalmology, ophthalmic surgery is performed on the eyes and accessory visual structures of tens of thousands of patients every year to save and improve vision. However, given the sensitivity of vision to even small changes in the eye and the tiny and delicate nature of many ocular structures, ophthalmic surgery is difficult to perform, and even minor or infrequent surgical errors are reduced Or a modest improvement in the accuracy of surgical technique can also have a dramatic impact on a patient's vision after surgery. [0003] Ophthalmic surgery is performed on the eye and accessory visual structures. During ophthalmic surgery, the patient is placed on the support, facing upwards, under the operating microscope. Insert the eyeli...
