Abstract
A solid-state ophthalmic surgical laser operating in the near and mid-infrared region (approximately 0.8 and 2.94 .mu.m) comprises a YAG laser including a trivalent erbium activator (Er:YAG) which is pumped by a semiconductor laser diode array. Either the pump wavelength (0.8 .mu.m) or the wavelength from the Er:YAG (2.94 .mu.m) can be alternately selected by the user for performing photocoagulation or photoablative surgical procedures on or within the eye. A single crystal sapphire fiberoptic delivery system transmits either wavelength to the surgical site.
