Claim One:
1. A method for performing ophthalmic surgery, the method comprising: viewing an interior portion of an eye of a patient using a surgical microscope generating an optical image of the interior portion of the eye; and sending a command to an optical coherence tomography (OCT) scanning controller coupled to the surgical microscope to generate first scan data from the interior portion of the eye, wherein the OCT scanning controller is in communication with an OCT scanner enabled for acquiring the first scan data, wherein the OCT scanning controller is enabled for, receiving the first scan data from the OCT scanner; accessing second scan data previously generated from the interior portion of the eye using OCT, wherein the second scan data has higher spatial resolution than the first scan data; capturing a deformation of the eye by the first scan data; based on the first scan data of the deformation, morphing the second scan data to correspond to the deformation to generate third scan data; and causing the third scan data to be displayed.
