1. A method for stereoscopically guiding a surgeon in performing a surgical procedure on an eye, the method comprising:
recording, through the use of a photosensor, a patient specific pre-operative still image of the eye prior to cyclorotation of the eye when the patient lies down for surgery; generating, through the use of a multidimensional visualization module including a second photosensor and an image processor, at least one real-time multidimensional visualization of at least a portion of the eye for display; and using, through the use of a data processor, the patient specific pre-operative still image to at least:
i) produce at least one virtual surgical reference indicium including an ocular natural vertical axis of the eye, andii) align the at least one virtual surgical reference indicium to the eye in conjunction with the real-time multidimensional visualization of at least a portion of the eye, wherein the patient specific pre-operative still image is captured under a dilation condition selected from the group consisting of natural dilation, chemical dilation, and no dilation. |
