1. A wavefront sensor comprising:
- a wavefront scanning module configured to output wavefront tilt measurements of different sub-wavefronts of a wavefront beam returned from a subject eye, wherein a tilt measurement indicates the angular offset of the wavefront from a plane wavefront;
a biometric/anatomic measurement device configured to output biometric/anatomic measurements of the subject eye; and
a processing system, coupled to the wavefront scanning module and the biometric/anatomic measurement device, configured to process biometric/anatomic measurements output during a surgical procedure to determine eye status information and to concurrently output eye status information and wavefront tilt measurements during the surgical procedure.

10. A wavefront sensor comprising:
-
a wavefront scanning module configured to sequentially output wavefront tilt measurements of different sub-wavefronts of a wavefront beam returned from a subject eye, wherein a tilt measurement indicates the angular offset of the sub-wavefront from a plane wavefront; a biometric/anatomic measurement device configured to output biometric/anatomic measurements of the subject eye, with the biometric/anatomic measurement device including a beam directing element configured to scan an illumination beam across a portion of the subject eye; and a processing system, coupled to the wavefront scanning module and the biometric/anatomic measurement device, with the processing system configured to control the beam directing to return reflections/scatterings of the illumination beam returned from a portion of the subject eye to the biometric/anatomic measurement device, configured to process biometric/anatomic measurements output during a surgical procedure to determine eye status information and configured to output eye status information and wavefront tilt measurements during the surgical procedure. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)
