摘要

A system and a corresponding method is provided for aligning and/or tracking of an eye of a patient with reference to an ophthalmic unit for performing diagnosis and/or treatment of the eye. The system comprises means for providing a previously acquired iris code of the eye, an iris recognition unit for acquiring an iris code of the eye under investigation and a comparator for comparing the previously acquired iris code with the present iris code and to provide a comparison result. The ophthalmic unit performs said diagnosis and/or treatment of the eye when said comparison result is greater than an identification determining level.
