Device and method for the pre-display of a spot pattern to be applied for a laser treatment of the eye

Abstract

A device and method for the pre-display of a spot pattern to be applied for a laser treatment of the eye. The spot patterns to be applied are displayed to the operator in advance with the aid of a target beam. The device for the pre-display of a spot pattern to be applied for a laser treatment of the eye includes a laser system and a scanning system for generating a target beam. Here, the laser system and the scanning system for generating the target beam are formed to generate one or more lines which overlie all the spots of the spot pattern of a planned laser treatment. The device and method are suitable for laser treatment of the retina, the trabecular meshwork as well as other regions. Here, it is irrelevant whether what the laser treatment to be applied is.
