“…80,171 While this research showed a proof of the concept, one of the early commercially available lasers for cataract surgery was a erbium:YAG (Er:YAG) laser. Manufacturers of Er:YAG lasers included the Centauri system (Premier Laser Systems, Irvine, CA); Phacolase or MCL 29 (Asclepion-Meditec, Jena, Germany), 57 86 and Adagio (Wavelight Laser Technologie GmBH, Germany) ( Figure 1). 2 1 These lasers were broadly categorized into direct and indirect acting systems based on whether or not laser energy directly made contact with the lens.…”

During laser-induced, breakdown-based medical procedures in human eyes such as posterior capsulotomy and vitreolysis, shock waves are emitted from the location of the plasma. A part of these spherically expanding transients is reflected from the concave surface of the corneal epithelium and refocused within the eye. Using a simplified experimental model of the eye, the dominant secondary cavitation clusters were detected by high-speed camera shadowgraphy in the refocusing volume, dislocated from the breakdown position and described by an abridged ray theory. Individual microbubbles were detected in the preheated cone of the incoming laser pulse and radially extending cavitation filaments were generated around the location of the breakdown soon after collapse of the initial bubble. The generation of the secondary cavitation structures due to shock wave focusing can be considered an adverse effect, important in ophthalmology.
