Abstract

The disclosure provides a system that may: determine first multiple focal point distances associated with respective multiple positions of a plane orthogonal to a laser beam; determine second multiple focal point distances associated with the respective multiple positions via for each position of the multiple positions: determine multiple intensity values associated with respective multiple interim focal point distances, each interim focal point distance greater than each focal point distance of the first multiple focal point distances associated with the position; determine an interim focal point distance respectively associated with a maximum intensity value; and determine a focal point distance as the interim focal point distance; and determine a depth of at least one incision in an eye based at least on differences between each of the second multiple focal point distances and each respective one of the first multiple focal point distances.
