Apparatus for working on eye tissue by means of a pulsed laser beam

An ophthalmological apparatus for working on eye tissue, comprising:

• a laser source configured to produce a pulsed laser beam;
• a focusing optical unit configured to focus the pulsed laser beam into the eye tissue;
• a scanner system configured to guide the pulsed laser beam onto work target points in the eye tissue;
• and
• a circuit configured to control the scanner system to produce cut trajectories for a tissue cut in a cornea by guiding the pulsed laser beam in a feed direction onto work target points along a work line, running in the cut trajectories, and along scan lines, overlaid on the work line and extending across the work line within the cut trajectories,
• wherein the circuit is configured to control the scanner system to guide the pulsed laser beam along the work line such that the cut trajectories, formed by the pulsed laser beam along the work line and the overlaid scan lines, extend next to one another and are separated initially by remaining tissue bridges between the cut trajectories, and, thereafter, to guide the pulsed laser beam onto work target points in the remaining tissue bridges between the cut trajectories to complete the tissue cut in the cornea.
