Abstract:
System and method for determining the position and orientation (P&O) of a tool-tip relative to an eye tissue of interest. The system includes and imaging and tracking module coupled with a processor. The imaging and tracking module at least includes an imager. The imager acquires at least one image of at least one tissue-reference-marker. The imaging and tracking module further determines information relating to the P&O of the tool. The processor determines the P&O of the tissue-reference-marker according to the acquired image of the tissue-reference-marker. The processor determines the P&O of the eye tissue of interest, according to the P&O of the tissue-reference-marker, and a predetermined relative P&O between the tissue-reference-marker and the eye tissue of interest. The processor also determines the P&O of a tool-tip according to a tool-marker and determines the relative P&O between the tool-tip and the eye tissue of interest.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for determining the position and orientation of a tool tip relative to an eye tissue of interest, the system comprising:\n an imaging and tracking module, said imaging and tracking module at least including an imager, said imager acquiring at least one image of at least one tissue reference marker, said at least one tissue reference marker being different from said eye tissue of interest, said imaging and tracking module further determining information relating to the position and orientation of said tool; and a processor coupled with said imaging and tracking module, said processor determining, continuously and in real-time, the position and orientation of said tissue reference marker according to the acquired at least one image of said tissue reference marker, said processor determining the position and orientation of said eye tissue of interest, continuously and in real-time, according to said position and orientation of said tissue reference marker, and a predetermined relative position and orientation between said tissue reference marker and said eye tissue of interest, said processor determining the position and orientation of a tool tip according to a tool marker, said processor further determining the relative position and orientation between said tool tip and said eye tissue of interest.
