A planning device for generating control data for a treatment apparatus which produces at least one cut surface in the cornea by operation of a laser device, and to a treatment apparatus including a planning device of the specified type. Also, a method for generating control data for such a treatment apparatus, and a method of eye surgery. In this case, a rotation of the cut surface about an axis running substantially parallel to the ocular axis is facilitated during the determination of the cut surfaces.

Eye-surgical treatment apparatus

A planning device that generates control data for a treatment apparatus which produces at least one cut surface in the cornea by application of a laser device. The invention further relates to a treatment apparatus having a planning device of the aforementioned type. The invention further relates to a method of generating control data for this treatment apparatus, and also to a method for eye surgery, at least one cut surface being produced in the cornea by application of a treatment apparatus with a laser device. The planning device has a calculation application that defines corneal cut surfaces, including a lenticule cut and a cap cut, the incision being controlled by the control data such that mutually corresponding locations of the lenticule cut and cap cut are impinged by laser pulses during substantially the same time interval.

An ophthalmological laser therapy system including an apparatus main body and a laser device which is arranged in the apparatus main body and in a laser arm. The laser arm is arranged on the apparatus main body and includes a lighting arrangement. The invention furthermore relates to a planning device and a planning method for planning a laser therapy on an ophthalmological laser therapy system. It seeks to provide an ophthalmological laser therapy system and a method, by which an optimal psychological (calming) effect can be facilitated for every patient. This calming effect is achieved by an ophthalmological laser therapy system whose laser arm has a lighting arrangement the color of which is variable on an individual basis, and by a corresponding planning device and a corresponding planning method.
