FORCE FEEDBACK FOR ROBOTIC MICROSURGICAL PROCEDURES

Apparatus and methods are described for performing a procedure on a patient's eye. A robotic unit inserts an ophthalmic tool into the eye via an incision in the cornea, such that a tip of the ophthalmic tool is disposed within the eye and a remote center of motion location of the ophthalmic too...

More Information
Summary:Apparatus and methods are described for performing a procedure on a patient's eye. A robotic unit inserts an ophthalmic tool into the eye via an incision in the cornea, such that a tip of the ophthalmic tool is disposed within the eye and a remote center of motion location of the ophthalmic tool is disposed within the incision. The location and the orientation of the tip of a control-component tool are determined based upon data received from one or more location sensors, and the tip of the ophthalmic tool is moved within the eye in a manner that corresponds with movement of the control-component tool. Feedback is provided to an operator that is indicative of a disposition of the remote center of motion location of the ophthalmic tool relative to the incision. Other applications are also described.
