An ophthalmic laser system includes a laser beam delivery system and an eye tracker responsive to movement of the eye operable with a laser beam delivery system for ablating corneal material of the eye through placement of laser beam shot on a selected area of the cornea of the eye. The shots are fired in a sequence and pattern such that no laser shots are fired at consecutive locations and no consecutive shots overlap. The pattern is moved in response to the movement of the eye.

The syringe assembly of claim 1 wherein the hollow barrel is made from material selected from glass and plastic. 12. The syringe assembly of claim 1 wherein at least one of the primary plunger tip and the secondary plunger tip is made from material selected from natural rubber, synthetic rubber and thermoplastic elastomers. 13. A process for providing a lyophilized medication in a syringe assembly, the process comprising: providing a hollow barrel having an interior wall defining a chamber for retaining a solution comprising a medication, wherein the hollow barrel comprises a distal end and a proximal end, wherein the distal end of the hollow barrel has a passageway therethrough communicating with the chamber and the proximal end of the hollow barrel has an aperture therethrough, wherein the distal end of the hollow barrel or the proximal end of the hollow barrel is sealed; placing a solution comprising the medication in the chamber; lyophilizing the solution in the chamber to provide a lyophilized medication; inserting a primary plunger tip having a proximal end and a distal end that is slidably positioned in fluid tight engagement with the interior wall, wherein the primary plunger tip has a receptor on the proximal end of the primary plunger tip to engage an engager on the distal end of an elongated tip plunger rod, wherein the primary plunger tip is disposed between the lyophilized medication and the proximal end of the hollow barrel; and inserting a secondary plunger tip having a proximal end and a distal end that is slidably positioned in fluid tight engagement with the interior wall, wherein the secondary plunger tip has a receptor on the proximal end that is engaged to an engager on the distal end of a tip removal rod, wherein the secondary plunger tip is disposed between the primary plunger tip and the proximal end of the hollow barrel, to provide a lyophilized medication in a syringe assembly. 14. The process of claim 13 wherein the distal end of the hollow barrel is configured to engage at least one of a discharge assembly and a sealing cap. 15. The process of claim 14 wherein the discharge assembly includes a needle. 16. The process of claim 13 wherein the medication is leuprolide acetate. 17. The process of claim 13 wherein at least one of the primary plunger tip and the secondary plunger tip comprises a plurality of annular ribs dimensioned for sliding fluid-tight engagement with the hollow barrel. 18. The process of claim 13 wherein the hollow barrel is made from material selected from glass and plastic. 19. The process of claim 13 wherein at least one of the primary plunger tip and the secondary plunger tip is made from material selected from natural rubber, synthetic rubber and thermoplastic elastomers. 20. The process of claim 13 wherein the medication is sterilized by filtration. 21. The process of claim 13 wherein at least one of the hollow barrel, primary plunger tip, and the secondary plunger tip is sterilized by gamma irradiation. 22. The process of claim 13 further including the step of packaging the syringe assembly containing the lyophilized medication. 23. The process of claim 22 wherein the packaging is under sterile conditions. 24. The process of claim 13 further including the step of labeling the syringe assembly containing the lyophilized medication. 25. The process of claim 13 further including the step of engaging a flange extender to the proximal end of the hollow barrel of the syringe assembly, wherein the flange extender projects radially outward from the proximal end of the hollow barrel of the syringe assembly. 26. A process for reconstituting a medication in a syringe, the process comprising: providing a syringe assembly with medication according to claim 6; removing the secondary plunger tip from the hollow barrel; placing the discharge assembly in communication with a diluent; and urging the primary plunger tip proximally and away from the distal end of the hollow barrel, thereby urging the diluent through the discharge assembly and through the distal end of the hollow barrel, thereby contacting the medication and effectively reconstituting the medication. 27. The process of claim 26 wherein the distal end of the hollow barrel is configured to engage at least one of a discharge assembly and a sealing cap. 28. The process of claim 26 wherein the discharge assembly includes a needle. 29. The process of claim 26 wherein the medication is selected from lyophilized medication, powdered medication, and granular medication. 30. The process of claim 29 wherein the lyophilized medication is leuprolide acetate. 31. The process of claim 26 wherein the urging the primary plunger tip proximally and away from the distal end of the hollow barrel is accomplished by engaging the primary plunger tip with an elongated tip plunger rod and urging the elongated tip plunger rod proximally and away from the distal end of the hollow barrel, thereby urging the diluent through the distal end of the hollow barrel and into the chamber, thereby effectively reconstituting the medication. 32. The process of claim 26 wherein at least one of the primary plunger tip and the secondary plunger tip comprises a plurality of annular ribs dimensioned for sliding fluid-tight engagement with the hollow barrel. 33. The process of claim 26 wherein the hollow barrel is made from material selected from glass and plastic. 34. The process of claim 26 wherein at least one of the primary plunger tip and the secondary plunger tip is made from material selected from natural rubber, synthetic rubber and thermoplastic elastomers. 35. The process of claim 26 wherein the medication is sterilized by filtration. 36. The process of claim 26 wherein at least one of the hollow barrel, primary plunger tip, and the secondary plunger tip is sterilized by gamma irradiation.
