A method is provided for surgical treatment of a patient's eye ( 1 ) by means of a laser, producing ultra-short laser pulses, and a transparent reference body ( 3 ), disposed been a laser applicator ( 4 ) and the eye ( 1 ). A transparent foil ( 5 ) is disposed between the reference body ( 3 ) and the eye ( 1 ). When the reference body ( 3 ) is applied onto the eye ( 1 ), the foil ( 5 ) protects the eye ( 1 ) from direct contact by the reference body ( 3 ). The laser is activated and the laser pulses are projected from the laser applicator ( 4 ) through the reference body ( 3 ) and the foil ( 5 ) to dissolve tissue of the eye ( 1 ). By moving the focal point of the pulsed laser beam into the foil ( 5 ), open cuts can be made in the eye ( 1 ), without damaging the reference body ( 3 ). |
