• iris registration
• arcuate incision planning

With this software it is possible to bring the infrared image of the un-dilated eye so that the optometrist has a better understanding of the eye condition and can decide on intra-operative guidance.
The iris registration helps to give a clear picture of the ocular cyclorotation along with the accurate placement of arcuate incisions. This placement helps in astigmatic correction so that toric IOL alignment is possible. This is actually done through corneal intrastromal marks feature offered by this software.
Moreover, the laser-made intrastromal mark is higher on the accurateness rather than the traditional ink markings which are not high on the accuracy factor. All these factors have successfully contributed towards the success of laser cataract surgery.
Once the optometrist goes through the patient’s diagnostic information, and compares it with the treatment parameters it becomes easier to plan the location, depth, and length of the laser-made incisions.
The automated data ensures that there are no transcription errors and also improves the efficiency in the operating room.
