Abstract[English]
A computer-implemented method of acquiring ophthalmic images for clinical use may include receiving, at a user device including a camera, a command to initiate image acquisition relative to an eye of a patient. The computer-implemented method may also include, responsive to the receiving, interactively guiding, at the user device, a user to capture at least one image of the eye that satisfies one or more clinical image parameters. The computer-implemented method may also include, responsive to the interactively guiding, the user device causing the at least one image to be stored in relation to the patient in a location accessible to an ophthalmic surgical system.[French]
L'invention concerne un procédé informatique d'acquisition d'images ophtalmiques à usage clinique pouvant comprendre la réception d'une commande pour lancer l'acquisition d'images relatives à l'œil d'un patient, sur la caméra d'un dispositif utilisateur. Le procédé informatique peut également comprendre, en réponse à la réception, le guidage interactif d'un utilisateur, sur le dispositif utilisateur, afin de capturer au moins une image de l'œil qui satisfait à un ou plusieurs paramètres d'image clinique. Le procédé informatique peut également comprendre, en réponse au guidage interactif, le stockage d'au moins une image en relation avec le patient dans un emplacement accessible à un système chirurgical ophtalmique par le dispositif utilisateur.
