Claim:
1. A method for laser treatment of an eye of a patient, the method comprising: receiving a laser treatment beam power and a laser treatment beam duration representing a dose of laser energy adapted to produce a first type of detectable lesion on the eye; determining a first Arrhenius integral value based on the received laser treatment beam power and laser treatment beam duration; determining a set of data points that define a first constant-Arrhenius curve corresponding to the first Arrhenius integral value, determining a set of data points that define a second constant-Arrhenius curve corresponding to a second Arrhenius integral value, determining a set of data points that define an operating curve for a laser treatment beam, receiving a selection corresponding to a data point of the set of data points that define the operating curve; in response to receiving the selection, adjusting at least one of a power and a duration of the laser treatment beam in accordance with the laser treatment beam power and the laser treatment beam duration represented by the selected data point of the operating curve; and outputting the laser treatment beam using the laser energy source.
