Abstract: A cassette 74 for use with an ophthalmic surgical pump 16 for collecting aspirant fluid and tissue from a patient's eye includes a rigid walled container 18 having an interior volume 42. At least one tapered alignment slot 20 is formed in a side wall of the container 18 and extends from a back wall 24 towards a front wall 26. An irrigation and aspiration manifold base 50 is removeably attached to the container 18. An aspiration path 46 is formed within the container 18 for receiving the aspiration fluid and the tissue from the eye and directing the flow of fluid towards a front half of the container 18 before the fluid and tissue collects within a majority of the interior volume 42 of the container 18. A fluid level indicator 34 is formed on a wall 22 of the container 18, such that an associated photo-detector 86 of the pump 16 may determine a level of fluid in the container 18.

Abstract: An apparatus for measuring a subject's eye having an instrument axis, comprising a slit projector for projecting slits of light, at least one sensor. The apparatus being adapted to form a first image of light from a first slit on the at least one sensor after the light scatters from the eye along a first pathway. The apparatus adapted to form a second image of light from the first slit on the at least one sensor after the light scatters from the eye along a second pathway. The apparatus comprising a processor operatively coupled to receive the first image and the second image, the processor adapted to perform a projective transformation of the second image and to combine data from the first image and the second image, after it is transformed, to form a third image.

Abstract: An injector and method for injecting a dual optic AIOL into an eye wherein the AIOL is loaded into the injector in an initially loaded condition with the first and second optics in generally coaxial alignment. A lens moving element is provided and operable to move the first optic toward the proximal end of the main body whereupon the first optic becomes located proximally of the second optic. A stop may be provided to prevent the second optic from moving proximally with the first optic. Displacing the optics to a non-coaxial position reduces the cross-sectional area of the AIOL which allows the AIOL to non-destructively compress to the size of the opening of the injector tip which may be as small as about 2.8 mm or less, for example.
