Actually it depends on the procedure.
I believe in the eye it is used most often for post-cataract opacification of the lens capsule (1064nm) or diabetic retinopathy (532nm).
It may be used for other indications in the eye as well. but that is all i'm aware of.

NdYag lasers operate at 1000-1200 nanometers
