Abstract
The invention provides an excimer laser system including a means for calibrating laser output to compensate for increased variation in laser optical fibers.
Claims21
A system for use in performing an intraocular procedure for treating an eye condition, said system comprising:
- an excimer laser source for generating laser energy to be provided to one of a plurality of single use, disposable excimer laser probes coupleable, one at a time, to said excimer laser source;
- and
- a laser management system comprising a hardware processor coupled to non-transitory, computer-readable memory containing instructions executable by said processor to cause said laser management system to:
- upon each instance of connecting a separate one of the plurality of excimer laser probes to the laser source, automatically receive and analyze data from a given one of the plurality of excimer laser probes coupled to said excimer laser source, said data indicative of at least a diameter of a fiber optic core of said given excimer laser probe;
- and
- automatically fine tune and adjust laser energy output from said excimer laser source to said excimer laser probe based on the diameter of the fiber optic core such that laser energy output from any one of the plurality of excimer laser probes is maintained at a desired level.

- and
- preconfigure a laser energy output level from said excimer laser source to said excimer laser probe based on the diameter of the fiber optic core such that laser energy output from any one of the plurality of excimer laser probes is output at a desired level, wherein the laser energy output level is preconfigured as part of an initial setup prior to performing the intraocular procedure.
