Abstract: Methods and systems for performing laser-assisted surgery on an eye form one or more small anchoring capsulotomies in the lens capsule of the eye. The one or more anchoring capsulotomies are configured to accommodate corresponding anchoring features of an intraocular lens and/or to accommodate one or more drug-eluting members. A method for performing laser-assisted eye surgery on an eye having a lens capsule includes forming an anchoring capsulotomy in the lens capsule and coupling an anchoring feature of the intraocular lens with the anchoring capsulotomy. The anchoring capsulotomy is formed by using a laser to incise the lens capsule. The anchoring feature can protrude transverse to a surface of the intraocular lens that interfaces with the lens capsule adjacent to the anchoring capsulotomy.

Abstract: Methods and systems for performing laser-assisted surgery on an eye form a layer of bubbles in the Berger's space of the eye to increase separation between the posterior portion of the lens capsule of the eye and the anterior hyaloid surface of the eye. A laser is used to form the layer of bubbles in the Berger's space. The increased separation between the posterior portion of the lens capsule and the anterior hyaloid surface can be used to facilitate subsequent incision of the posterior portion of the lens capsule with decreased risk of compromising the anterior hyaloid surface. For example, the layer of bubbles can be formed prior to performing a capsulotomy on the posterior portion of the lens capsule.

Abstract: A snowmobile is disclosed, the snowmobile comprising a terrain visualization device. The device comprises a mounting structure fixed to the snowmobile, and a light emitting unit attached to the mounting structure. The light emitting unit is configured to project a predetermined contrast pattern onto terrain in front of the snowmobile in use. A method for driving a snowmobile across terrain is also disclosed, the method comprising projecting a predetermined contrast pattern onto the terrain using a light emitting unit while driving the snowmobile across the terrain, so that the topography of the terrain can be determined from distortion of the contrast pattern.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for registering a corneal flap for laser surgery on an eye. The method includes generating a first image of the eye during a diagnostic procedure, determining a corneal flap geometry referenced to the first image, generating a second image of the eye during to a treatment procedure, comparing the first image with the second image, and registering the corneal flap geometry of the first image to the second image.

Abstract: A device and method are provided for grafting a donor component onto a recipient member. In the method, a void in the recipient member is defined by a boundary with predetermined dimensions. Similarly, the donor component is specified as having a boundary with predetermined dimensions that are substantially compatible with the void. Thereafter, suture paths are created in the donor component and the recipient member. When the donor component has been positioned in the void of the recipient member, the suture paths are aligned. Then, a suture is passed through the suture path and across the respective boundaries to secure the donor component to the recipient member.
