Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an eye treatment system for performing laser surgery on an eye which includes a laser optical system. The laser optical system includes a scanning system for scanning a focus of a laser beam of the laser light within a cornea of the eye in three dimensions. The laser optical system further includes a focusing optical system. The scanning system is in the beam path of the laser beam between the laser source and the focusing optical system. The eye treatment system further includes a contact element which is in the beam path of the laser beam between the focusing optical system and the eye. The contact element has a contact surface for contacting a cornea of the eye. At least a portion of the contact surface has a shape, which is convex toward the cornea.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system for treating a cornea of a human eye using laser radiation. The system includes a laser system and a control system, which is configured to control the laser system for performing (a) a reshaping laser ablation for ablating a portion of a stroma of the cornea; and (b) a laser surface treatment. The laser surface treatment is a substantially optically non-corrective treatment of a reshaped surface portion. The reshaped surface portion represents a corrective or non-corrective reshaping of an anterior surface of the cornea and is formed using the reshaping laser ablation. A maximum ablation depth of the laser surface treatment is less than 5 micrometers or less than 3 micrometers.
