Methods and systems for determining whether an image is of a left eye or a right eye may be used to enhance laser eye surgery systems and techniques. Methods generally involve locating an iris center and/or pupil center on an image of the eye, locating a corneal vertex and/or at least one reflection on the image, and determining whether the image is of a left eye or a right eye, based on the location of the corneal vertex and/or reflection(s) relative to the iris center and/or pupil center. Systems include a laser emitting a beam of an ablative light energy and a computer processor having a computer program for determining whether the image is of a left eye or a right eye, based on a location of the corneal vertex and/or reflection(s) relative to the iris center and/or pupil center.

L'invention concerne des procédés et des systèmes permettant de déterminer si une image de l'oeil gauche ou de l'oeil droit peut être utilisée pour améliorer des systèmes et des techniques de chirurgie oculaire au laser. Lesdits procédés consistent généralement à localiser le centre de l'iris et/ou le centre de la pupille sur une image de l'oeil; à localiser un vertex cornéen et/ou au moins une réflexion sur l'image; et à déterminer s'il s'agit d'une image de l'oeil gauche ou de l'oeil droit en fonction de la localisation du vertex cornéen et/ou de la ou des réflexion(s) par rapport au centre de l'iris et/ou au centre de la pupille. Les systèmes comprennent un laser émettant un faisceau d'énergie lumineuse ablative et un processeur informatique doté d'un programme informatique permettant de déterminer s'il s'agit d'une image de l'oeil gauche ou de l'oeil droit en fonction de la localisation du vertex cornéen et/ou de la ou des réflexion(s) par rapport au centre de l'iris et/ou au centre de la pupille.
