1. A method for determining the applicability of a treatment pattern for manipulation of a cornea of an eye using a laser, comprising the following steps:

  • (a) developing said treatment pattern using input data corresponding to a desired refractive correction;

    (b) determining an actual volumetric profile based on said treatment pattern;

    (c) determining a theoretical volumetric profile based on at least one of said input data by using a basic theoretical model; and

    (d) comparing the actual volumetric profile with the theoretical volumetric profile to determine whether the actual volumetric profile is within specified tolerances on the basis of the theoretical volumetric profile.
