1. A method of laser-based ophthalmic surgery, wherein a treatment apparatus comprising a laser device is used to generate at least one cut surface in tissue of an eye by deflecting a laser beam in the eye, said method comprising: generating corneal data by using an OCT;defining the cut surface on the basis of the corneal data;generating a control dataset for the cut surface;transmitting the control dataset to the treatment apparatus; andgenerating the cut surface by controlling the laser device using the control dataset,wherein the laser device used comprises a laser source emitting the laser beam as a pulsed laser beam having a pulse duration in the range of between 1 fs and 10 ps generating optical breakthroughs within the eye tissue. 2. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the laser beam has a repetition frequency from 1 to 1000 kHz. 3. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the laser beam has a pulse energy of between 0.01 μJ and 0.01 mJ. 4. The method according to claim 2, wherein the cut surface is defined to confine corneal volume which is to be removed to correct a refraction error of the eye. 5. The method according to claim 4, wherein said corneal data includes information on pre-operative cuts generated in a previous ophthalmic operation and wherein said ophthalmic surgery is effected as a re-treatment of the previous ophthalmic operation which left the pre-operative cuts in the cornea. 6. The method as claimed in claim 5, wherein the cut surface continues the pre-operative cuts. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the corneal data are further generated on the basis of a measurement of the eye, using a refractometer, a keratometer, an abberometer, or a wave-front measurement device. 8. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the cut surface comprises an opening cut leading to an anterior surface of the eye's cornea. 9. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the cut surface confines defective material of the cornea, which material is to be removed. 10. A system for ophthalmic surgery, comprising: a treatment apparatus comprising a laser device to generate at least one cut surface in tissue of an eye by deflecting a laser beam in the eye;an OCT generating corneal data; anda planning station defining the cut surface on basis of the corneal data, generating a control dataset for the corneal cut surface, and transmitting the control dataset to the treatment apparatus,wherein the laser device comprises a laser source emitting the laser beam as a pulsed laser beam having a pulse duration in the range of between 1 fs and 10 ps generating optical breakthroughs within the eye tissue. 11. The system as claimed in claim 10, wherein the laser beam has a repetition frequency from 1 to 1000 kHz. 12. The system as claimed in claim 10, wherein the laser beam has a pulse energy of between 0.01 μJ and 0.01 mJ. 13. The system according to claim 10, wherein the planning station defines the cut surface to confine corneal volume which is to be removed to correct a refraction error of the eye. 14. The system according to claim 10, wherein said corneal data includes information on pre-operative cuts generated in a previous ophthalmic operation and wherein said planning station generates the control dataset for a re-treatment of the previous operation which left the pre-operative cuts in the cornea. 15. The system as claimed in claim 14, wherein the cut surface continues the pre-operative cuts. 16. The system of claim 10, further comprising a refractometer, a keratometer, an abberometer, or a wave-front measurement device. 17. The system as claimed in claim 10, wherein the cut surface comprises an opening cut leading to an anterior surface of the eye's cornea. 18. The system as claimed in claim 10, wherein the cut surface confines defective material of the cornea which material is to be removed.
