Ridge operator-assisted delineation of capsulorhexis border for cataract surgery.

ABSTRACT:

Background

With the continuous development of machine vision and imaging technology and its application in computer-aided diagnosis, it is clinically important to use computer technology to assist physicians in accurate cataract surgery. The capsulorhexis directly affects the outcome of cataract surgery, therefore, we design a method to automatically determine the virtual boundary of capsulorhexis for cataract surgery planning and tracking in-vivo to help surgeons achieve a more ideal capsulotomy geometry.

Methods

In this study, an effective method was proposed to detect and display the location of capsulorhexis in cataract videos in-vivo. The initial step was locating the entire eye area by analyzing the connected components of the mirror reflective points in
