Ophthalmic surgical system with moveable light filter

An ophthalmic surgical system, comprising:

• an intraocular illumination device sized and shaped for positioning within an eye of a patient and configured to transmit a light beam within the eye;
• a filter positioned in a beam path of the light beam, the filter including:
• an unfiltered area;
• a first filtered area configured to limit the transmission of a first range of wavelengths of the light beam by the intraocular illumination device within the eye;
• and
• a second filtered area configured to limit the transmission of a second range of wavelengths of the light beam by the intraocular illumination device within the eye;
• an actuator configured to selectively move the filter to cause the light beam to pass through one or more of the unfiltered area, the first filtered area, and the second filtered area of the filter;
• and
• a processor in communication with the actuator and configured to:
• detect a beam composition of the light beam transmitted by the intraocular illumination device within the eye;
• and
• based on the detected beam composition, output a first control signal to modify the detected beam composition by causing the actuator to selectively move the filter to a first position such that a first portion of the light beam passes through the unfiltered area and a second portion of the light beam passes through the first filtered area or the second filtered area.
