Laser eye surgery. Patient's eyes being prepared for excimer laser refractive eye surgery. Here drops are being applied to keep the eye wet. Excimer laser refractive surgery uses an excimer laser, a type of laser suitable for use on human tissue, to correct the refractive state of the eye. This is usually to correct short-sightedness or long-sightedness. Photographed at the Fondation Rothschild, Paris, France.
