Abstract
The use of short intensive Nd:glass laser pulses focused into the opaque regions of eyes with cataracts to evaporate or plasmatize these regions and then reach clean and optically transparent areas has been developed on two different scales of pulse lengths. According to the availability of the present laser technology, one regime is the Q- switch pulse technique with nanosecond pulses, and the other is the mode-locked laser pulse technique with pulses of a few picosecond duration.
