Abstract

The invention relates to a controller for a surgical laser. According to the invention, the controller is adapted to control a laser in order to produce two or more three-dimensional compression zones, each comprising a plurality of lesions, inside a lens cortex of a crystalline lens of the eye using a laser pulse or multiple laser pulses, wherein the controller is adapted such that a laser can be calibrated with respect to a reference point within the lens, and each of the compression zones produced has a length in a radial direction, a depth in a direction parallel to the optical or visual axis and an average width in a direction parallel to a tangent of the lens cortex, wherein the sum of the average widths of all compression zones is 0.1 to 2 millimeter for every 1 diopter of desired gain in accommodation amplitude of the lens.
