Method for controlling an eye surgical laser of a treatment device for the separation of a volume body with a predefined posterior interface and a predefined anterior interface from a human or animal cornea. The method includes controlling the laser by means of a control device of the treatment device such that it emits pulsed laser pulses in a shot sequence in a predefined pattern into the cornea. The interfaces of the volume body are defined by the predefined pattern and are generated by means of an interaction of the individual laser pulses with the cornea by the generation of a plurality of cavitation bubbles by photodisruption along at least one cavitation bubble path. At least a partial area of an outer cavitation bubble path of the volume body is generated with a higher cavitation bubble density than an inner cavitation bubble path.
A method for controlling an eye surgical laser of a treatment device for separation of a volume body with a predefined posterior interface and a predefined anterior interface from a human or animal cornea, comprising:
A method for performing a surgical procedure on a human or animal cornea for separation of a volume body from the cornea, wherein for separating the volume body by an eye surgical laser, a plurality of cavitation bubbles is generated along a cavitation bubble path in the cornea, the cavitation bubble path having an outer cavitation bubble path section and an inner cavitation bubble path section, and wherein at least a partial area of the outer cavitation bubble path section of an outer edge area, as radially viewed, of the volume body to be separated is generated with a higher cavitation bubble density than the inner cavitation bubble path section.
