  • Publication number: 20130182223
    Abstract: A suspended goniolens system is provided. The suspended goniolens system includes a balance arm with a goniolens disposed at one end and a counterbalance disposed towards an opposing end. The system can position the goniolens in a desired position near a patient's eye and can maintain the desired position without the need to be held in place by a clinician. The suspended goniolens system allows for the clinician to use both hands during treatment of the patient. The goniolens system can be attached to an optical microscope or an adapter engaged with the optical microscope. Methods are also provided for using the goniolens system.

  • Patent number: 8230866
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for imaging an eye portion or for treating glaucoma in an eye of a patient. In a first step an optical microscopic image of a portion of the eye is acquired. In the optical microscopic image a distinguishable anatomical structure is identified to predict a location of a volume portion to be imaged three-dimensionally. Three-dimensional imaging of the located volume portion is performed by acquiring an optical coherence tomography image of the located volume portion. The volume portion is treated by either directing a laser beam to the volume portion or inserting an implant based on the OCT-image.
