Device for dissecting an eye for the introduction of photosensitizer and method of refractive surgery

摘要

A device for dissecting an eye 10 for the introduction of photosensitizer into the cornea is presented with which laser radiation 26 is focused in the interior of the cornea to create cavitation bubbles, whereby channels 18 are created in the cornea through which the photosensitizer can be introduced into the cornea. Furthermore, a method for refractive surgery is disclosed utilizing a sensitizer for hardening corneal tissue by cross-linking. (Fig. 1) 30 M a
