Abstract

See full text

Techniques, apparatus and systems for providing photodisruptive treatment of the crystalline lens of the eye are described. For example, a method of treating a lens region of an eye with a laser includes identifying a boundary of the hard lens region, selecting a laser-parameter to enable a photodisruptive procedure in the hard lens region and to control a spreading of bubbles in the hard lens region, modifying a mechanical property of a posterior portion of the hard lens region in a proximity of the identified boundary by the photodisruptive procedure, and modifying a mechanical property of a portion anterior to the modified posterior portion of the hard lens region by the photodisruptive procedure.
