Abstract

A method for validating selection of a tip type for a tip of a handpiece of an ophthalmic instrument, the method includes storing a definition of multiple tip types and multiple respective visual properties of the tip types. An image of the tip is acquired by a camera during a medical procedure using the ophthalmic instrument. An actual visual property of the tip is identified in the acquired image. Based on the stored definition of the multiple tip types and the multiple respective visual properties, it is determined whether the actual visual property of the tip matches a specified tip type intended for the medical procedure. A responsive action is taken in case of a mismatch between the actual visual property and the specified visual property.
