Abstract: An ophthalmic surgical device is disclosed that combines laser energy for treatment of vision or ocular defect and illumination energy for visualization of a treatment site during surgery in a single common waveguide fiber, thereby enabling reduction of a diameter of a probe or canula of the device, whereby a smaller incision may be utilized to reduce trauma to the eye. The device may further include additional features, such as a conduit for supply of material or removal of material from the treatment site.

Abstract: An illumination and laser energy delivery system, providing various flush and extended tip laser and illumination probe configurations for retinal surgery, is disclosed that allows efficient delivery of laser and illumination energy to a surgical site through a device that is smaller than the standard 20 gauge probe conventionally used in endophotocoagulation procedures. Novel constructions, as disclosed, enable the space inside the probe cannula to be used more efficiently than in prior art devices, providing improved performance of the device and system in delivering laser and illumination energy to the surgical site.
