Abstract
An apparatus and method for conducting laser emulsification surgery are disclosed. Laser energy is generated within the hand held member (10) and is transmitted to the probe cylinder (15) at the distal end of the device (2). The apparatus is a hand held device which contains a laser light source and flashlamp (12) for generating and emitting the laser radiation. Preferably, an Erbium YAG laser is utilized. A light horn arrangement (18) or mirror arrangement (51) transmits the light energy from the source (12) to the proximal end of a probe extension member (15). The distal tip (31) of the probe extension member (15) is directed to the cataract or other target to be emulsified.
