Abstract
A patient interface device (PID) for contacting the surface of the eye and having a meniscus inverter. A pin, clip and ridge configuration for holding a window and maintaining an open reservoir of BSS in a PID. A PID for integrated systems and methods for performing laser and phacoemulsification operations. A PID for a reconfigurable system for performing a laser procedure in a laser configuration, and then being reconfigured into a phaco configuration, to perform a phacoemulsification, and then being reconfigured back to the laser configuration.
