Abstract

An ophthalmic surgical system for controlling a temperature of a cornea of an eye for a surgical procedure comprises a fluid management system and a computer. The fluid management system manages fluid within a channel structure created in the cornea of the eye. The computer instructs one or more of the controllable components to create the channel structure in the cornea. The channel structure provides a passageway between an interior of the eye and an exterior of the eye, and is proximate to a treatment site. The computer instructs the fluid management system to manage fluid within the channel structure in order to control the temperature of the cornea of the eye.
