Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods include an intraocular lens (IOL) cart that may assist with inventory management and may help users identify an IOL for use in a particular surgical application. The IOL cart may include sensors and indicators that provide information to a user and may update IOL inventory automatically whenever the IOL cart is accessed by a user.

Abstract: Systems and methods for assisting in the removal of a cataract from an eye can include obtaining pre-operative data for the eye, the pre-operative data including imaging data associated with the lens of the eye, determining a lens density map based on the imaging data associated with the lens, and generating laser fragmentation patterns for a laser fragmentation procedure based on the lens density map.

Abstract: Systems and methods are presented for providing a graphical user interface (GUI) for assisting eye-care professionals in intraocular lens implantation planning in a two-stage process. During the first stage, first biometric data of a patient's eye is obtained. A first set of lens products comprising a first lens product is determined based on the first biometric data. A first grid is provided via the GUI to present the first set of lens products. During the second stage, second biometric data of the eye is obtained after an existing lens of the patient's eye is removed. A second set of lens products comprising a second lens product is determined based on the second biometric data. A second grid is provided via the GUI to present the second set of lens products and a difference between the first and second lens products.

Abstract: A surgical system includes a control device, a touch screen display, and a GUI displayed on the touch screen display. A parameter icon has a parameter area, a first set point, a second set point, a parameter line extending from the first set point to the second set point, and a value orb located on the parameter line. The location of the value orb on the parameter line corresponds to a control position of the control device. A parameter value area is located under the parameter line and extends from the first set point to the value orb. A numerical parameter value is located in the parameter area. The parameter line represents a range of parameter values from the first set point to the second set point, and when the control device is a foot pedal, a range of travel of the foot pedal.

Abstract: A graphical user interface for use in phacoemulsification surgical systems that allows a user to select different pulse modes by touching portions of the display screen. The user interface includes first and second display elements. One display element includes a representation of the on-time of the pulses, and the other display element includes a representation of the off-time. The representations show how the on-time and off-time change relative to a position of a controller, such as a foot pedal. The representation show a constant time, or that a time increases or decreases as the foot pedal is pressed. To select a pulse mode, a user can scroll through different pulse representations by touching the screen at the display elements. The selected pulse mode can be continuous, pulse, burst, or a combination or derivation thereof.

Abstract: In various embodiments, a surgical console may include a sensor strip with sensor strip sensors (e.g., field effect or capacitive sensors) offset vertically and configured to receive an input from a user corresponding to a vertical height of a patient's eyes relative to the surgical console. The surgical console may use the input from the sensor strip to determine a patient eye level (PEL) relative to a surgical console component and then use the PEL and the at least one component in controlling operation of at least one of a source of irrigation or a source of aspiration during an ophthalmic procedure. The surgical console may further include a plurality of visual indicators positioned relative to at least two of the plurality of sensor strip sensors and configured to be illuminated to correspond to a sensor detecting the touch input.

Abstract: In various embodiments, a braking system may include an actuator, a pawl gear coupled to the actuator, and a wheel gear plate. The braking system may further include a brake pad, an outer wheel coupled to the brake pad, and a spring washer plate configured to press the wheel gear plate against the brake pad such that the wheel gear plate is configured to inhibit rotation of the outer wheel through friction between the wheel gear plate and the brake pad when the pawl gear inhibits rotation of the wheel gear plate. In some embodiments, the braking system may further include a sensor and the actuator may be triggered to actuate the pawl gear in response to signals from the sensor.

Abstract: A surgical system and cassette, the cassette having an identification method that is specific to the cassette. Suitable methods include bar coding or Radio Frequency Identification (“RFID”). Cassette information that may be encoded include features such as lot number and performance characteristics, such as pressure sensor calibration data, flow and pressure data and any other performance characteristics of the cassette captured during testing of the cassette at manufacture.

Abstract: A task light system for a surgical console includes a task light that can be held to a coupling location on a surgical console. The task light has an inductive coupling, a light source, and a goose neck connecting the light source to the inductive coupling. The coupling location is located on a face of the surgical console. The coupling location is configured to magnetically attract and hold the inductive coupling. The face of the surgical console where the coupling location is located is a continuous surface.
