This process uses highly focused, almost unimaginably short duration laser pulses to divide material at the molecular level without impacting the surrounding tissue. The beam of laser light is focused to a distinct point, creating a microscopic bubble of carbon dioxide and water vapor. Thousands of these bubbles are precisely positioned to define the flap’s dimensions, as well as the location of the hinge. The surgeon can then lift the flap to permit treatment by the laser. When treatment is complete, the flap can be accurately repositioned due to its beveled edge.. }
