METHOD FOR PROVIDING CONTROL DATA FOR AN EYE SURGICAL LASER OF A TREATMENT APPARATUS, CONTROL DEVICE AND TREATMENT APPARATUS

A method is disclosed for providing control data for an eye surgical laser of a treatment apparatus for the removal of a tissue. The method includes using a control device for determining a wavefront of a cornea and Zernike polynomials from the wavefront and calculating a respective tissue geometry for each Zernike polynomial. A combination of Zernike polynomials describes a tissue removal geometry. The control device ascertains a subgroup of the Zernike polynomials by an optimization calculation, which uses a preset condition to select Zernike polynomials. The condition is preset by a maximized target corneal geometry and a target imaging correction to be achieved. The target corneal geometry is a difference between a corneal geometry and the tissue removal geometry. An optimized tissue removal geometry is found using the subgroup and control data for controlling the eye surgical laser, which uses the optimized tissue removal geometry for separating the tissue.
