System, apparatus and method for monitoring anterior chamber intraoperative intraocular pressure

Abstract:

A method for maintaining anterior chamber intraoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) is provided by receiving and/or detecting variables of a surgical system and utilizing those variables to monitor intraoperative IOP. Determining an IOP in real time during a surgical procedure either provides a notification to an eye surgeon or allows a target IOP of the anterior chamber of a patient's eye to be set and maintained.
