Abstract

A method for tracking an eye of a living patient in X-Y directions during a diagnostic or surgical procedure on the eye, to stabilize motion of the eye, comprising: illuminating a region of the eye, including a portion of the limbus, at the outer rim of the iris, providing optics for receiving reflected light from said region of the eye and for focussing an image of said region on a position sensing detector means, with the position sensing detector means, detecting contrast in the image of said region between lighter areas and darker areas, generally at the limbus and including portions of the iris and the sclera on either side of the limbus, and identifying generally a positional relationship of contrast between relative light values in a plurality of segments defined on the position sensing detector means, as a nominal position of the limbus relative to the position sensing detector means, during the course of the diagnostic or surgical procedure, repeatedly reviewing and analyzing the image received on the position sensing detector means and tracing changes in the received contrast relationship to changes in position of the limbus as the contrast relationship shifts on the position sensing detector means, to thus determine a new position of the limbus, and shifting the optics to aim at the determined new position of the limbus, to thereby again read a detected contrast relationship with the position sensing detector means, similar to the contrast relationship for the nominal position.
