Abstract: A surface treatment laser beam delivery and tracking system. The laser (500) generates laser light (502) along a path at an energy level suitable for treating a surface. An optical translator (520) shifts the path onto a resulting beam path. An optical angle adjuster (310, 316, 320, 326) changes the angle of the resulting beam path relative to the original path such that the laser light is incident on the surface to be treated. A motion sensor (100) transmits light energy (101-T) to the surface and receives reflected light energy (101-R) from the surface via the optical angle adjuster. The light energy travels on a parallel path to the shifted beam through the optical angle adjuster. The motion sensor detects movement of the surface relative to the original path and generates error control signals indicative of the movement. The optical angle adjuster responds to the error control signals to change the angle of the resulting beam path.

Abstract: A system and method for objective measurement and correction of focusing optical systems comprising optics disposed in the path of the beam (18) which directs the beam through the focusing optical system, e.g., and eye (120) and focuses the beam at its rear portion (122). The beam is diffusely reflected back and a wavefront analyzer (26) is disposed in the path of the wavefront projected from the optics and calculates the distortions as an estimate of aberrations of the focusing optical system.

Abstract: A method and system are provided for sensing eye motion, such as saccadic eye motion, in a non-intrusive fashion. An optical delivery arrangement (105) converts a laser beam pulse (104) into a plurality of light spots (21-24). The light spots are focused such that they are incident on a corresponding plurality of positions located on a boundary (12) whose motion is coincident with that of eye movement. The boundary can be defined by two visually adjoining surfaces having different coefficients of reflection. Energy is reflected from each of the positions located on the boundary receiving the light spots. An optical receiving arrangement (156) detects the reflected energy from each of the positions. Changes in reflected energy at one or more of the positions is indicative of eye motion.
