In one embodiment, an apparatus comprises a touchscreen and a control device for executing an operating command which is input on the user side via the touchscreen. The control device is adapted to control the touchscreen such that, in order to prompt a command input, a first graphic element marking a touching starting location and a destination graphic arrangement having at least one second graphic element at a distance from the first graphic element are displayed on the touchscreen. The control device is further adapted to recognise a command input depending detecting a first movement of at least one object over the touchscreen starting from the touching starting location continuously up to a second graphic element of the destination graphic arrangement and on reaching this second graphic element a movement stoppage of the object, followed by a follow-up action of the object on the touchscreen.

Apparatus equipped with a touchscreen and method for controlling such an apparatus

An apparatus for corneal crosslinking, the use of the apparatus for corneal crosslinking, and a method for corneal crosslinking are provided. The apparatus comprises a source of laser radiation; a scanner device for scanning the laser radiation; and a control computer for controlling the scanner device.

Apparatus for corneal crosslinking

An ophthalmic apparatus includes a resting member configured to provide rest for a human patient, and an ophthalmic device configured to perform one or more procedures with respect to an eye of the patient resting on the resting member, where the one or more procedures include at least one of an eye-surgical, therapeutic and diagnostic procedure. The apparatus also includes a user interface device configured to receive log-in data from a user, and a controller configured to access stored user profile data based on the log-in data and configure one or more configurable components of the apparatus in accordance with the accessed user profile data.

Automatic machine settings for customized refractive surgery

A system for surgical treatment of an eye includes a laser arrangement that is adapted to emit light with a wavelength and repetition-rate suitable for surgical treatment of the eye. The system further includes a temperature-registration device that is adapted to register the temperature of an object that is to be subjected to the light of the laser arrangement.

System and process for surgical treatment of an eye as well as process for calibrating a system of such a type

A surgical microscope () comprises an image display module for displaying an image to be overlaid into an observation beam path of the microscope, and an image sensor for recording an image of an eye () of an observer looking through the microscope. According to the invention, the image display module and the image sensor are formed by a common electronic module () produced in integrated circuit technology. The module () preferably has an organic light-emitting diode, produced in OLED-on-CMOS technology, for displaying the image to be overlaid. The image sensor may be formed by CMOS-compatible photodetectors.
