Corneal ectasia is a disorder that distorts vision by thinning and bulging the cornea. Severe cases often require surgical implants. The sponsor, a medical technology company, has developed a femtosecond laser system to create corneal surgery incisions. The Clinic team was tasked with prototyping a touchscreen-based graphical user interface (GUI) for intuitive treatment planning. Based on user studies and surgeon interviews, this GUI allows surgeons to draw incision shapes on scans of patients鈥� eyes and export them into the laser system.
