Abstract
A simple and novel method that has the potential to compete with the ultramicrosurgical action of laser techniques that have been able to effectively perform in areas of microsurgery is presented. It is shown that results obtained in animal studies and in an ongoing human trial of this technology indicate that this methodology can achieve, with lower pulse energies, cutting rates that are similar to laser systems that have been shown to have exceptional ultramicrosurgical abilities in vitreoretinal surgery. This technique has the potential for replacing ArF and Er:YAG laser techniques in ultramicrosurgical applications.
