    摘要: An optical surgical probe includes a handpiece, a light guide within the handpiece, and a multi-spot generator at a distal end of the handpiece. The handpiece is configured to optically couple to a light source. The light guide is configured to carry a light beam from the light source to a distal end of the handpiece. The multi-spot generator includes a faceted optical element with a faceted end surface spaced from a distal end of the light guide. The faceted end surface includes at least one facet oblique to a path of the light beam.

    摘要: An ophthalmic laser probe system comprises an array of optical waveguides and an adapter operable to connect with a laser source. The laser probe system further includes a first reflective surface within the adapter. The first reflective surface is movable about a first axis. The laser probe system also includes a second reflective surface within the adapter. The second reflective surface is movable about a second axis orthogonal to the first axis. The first reflective surface is configured to receive a laser beam emitted from the laser source and redirect the laser beam toward the second reflective surface.

    摘要: In certain embodiments, a system may include a housing, one or more lenses, and a scanning system. The housing has an interior region. A lens is disposed within the interior region and transmits a light beam. The scanning system is disposed within the interior region and comprises a number of scanning cells, where each scanning cell comprises an electro-optical (EO) material. The scanning system performs the following for a number of iterations to yield a spot pattern: receive one or more voltages and electrically steer the light beam with the EO material from a current direction to a next direction in response to the voltages.
