Claim 13:
14. A scanning laser for producing patterned laser energy for an ophthalmic laser treatment system, the scanning laser comprising:
a laser module for producing laser energy;
a scanning module for producing the patterned laser energy by deflecting the laser energy based on predetermined ophthalmic treatment patterns; and
a delivery optics system outputting the patterned laser energy to the ophthalmic laser treatment system, wherein the delivery optics include:
a lens that receives the patterned laser energy at different angles from the scanning module, and
a spot size selector module for adjusting spot sizes for the patterned laser energy received from the scanning module and the lens; and

a housing, mounted on the ophthalmic laser treatment system, containing the laser module, the scanning module, and the delivery optics system;
wherein the patterned laser energy travels from the scanning laser to the ophthalmic laser treatment system via a free space path with no optical fiber connection.
