Method And Apparatus For Correcting Off-Center Laser Ablations In Refractive Surgery
US Patent:
6951556, Oct 4, 2005
Filed:
Jul 1, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/188694
Inventors:
Robert L. Epstein - McHenry IL, US
International Classification:
A61F009/01
US Classification:
606 5, 606 10, 129898
Abstract:
A novel method and apparatus are provided for correcting an off-center laser ablation in the cornea, in which the original ablated area has a center that is offset from the correct center of the optical cornea. The method comprises the steps of determining the correct optical center of the cornea and the offset location of the ablation; performing a supplemental laser ablation on the cornea with the laser beam covering generally the original ablated area, and with the energy of the supplemental laser increasing in a direction from the offset center toward the correct center; introducing a laser shield to cover the entire original ablated area; and performing another laser ablation with the correct optical center as the center of the ablated area.

System For Increasing The Accuracy And Safety Of Ablative Laser Treatments
US Patent:
6613043, Sep 2, 2003
Filed:
Nov 6, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/992152
Inventors:
Robert L. Epstein - McHenry IL 60050
International Classification:
A61F 9007
US Classification:
606 10, 606 3, 606 5, 606 12
Abstract:
A method and apparatus are provided to increase the accuracy and safety of ablative laser treatments of the eye. In an illustrative embodiment, tissue is removed from the cornea, via a laser, to provide an effluent from the cornea. The effluent is aspirated and deposited into a chemical analyzer. The amount of effluent that has been deposited is quantitated. Data relating to a dimension of the ablated cornea is inputted to a computer and data relating to the quantitized effluent is also inputted to the computer. The computer uses the quantitized effluent data and the inputted dimension data to estimate the number of diopters of treatment accomplished. The estimated number of diopters of treatment accomplished is compared to a desired number of diopters of treatment and the laser treatment is modified based on the comparison for most accurate optical results.
