← ScienceWhich mechanism limits focal sharpness in ophthalmic laser refractive surgery?
A)Temporal pulse coherence breakdown✓
B)Corneal tissue thermal expansion
C)Plasma-induced ablation threshold deviation
D)Lateral heat diffusion inaccuracy
💡 Explanation
Shorter coherence lengths cause greater time jitter among delivered pulses, thereby increasingly impacting ablation precision. This decoherence spreads out delivery energy because it less precisely decomposes corneal tissues, rather than other thermal or plasma phenomena.
