A Device and a method for using laser energy for treatment of ophthalmic tissue. The device comprises an energy source capable of generating short bursts of energy at a range of pulse repetition rates. The method comprises surface and three dimensional interactions for therapeutic use and/or to modify or remove tissue from ophthalmic targets. A device comprises an energy source capable of generating short bursts of energy at a variable pulse repetition rates. The repetition rates range from a single shot to several hundred Mega-Hertz so that selective, three dimensional interactions with a volumetric modified zone within targeted tissue of the eye issue.
