A device for laser-aided eye surgery comprising a patient table, as well as at least one laser system with a laser treatment head for emission of a focused laser beam onto an eye of a patient to be treated on the table. The laser system comprises an operation microscope with a viewing beam path running collinear to the laser beam path at least in the area of the emission location of the laser beam. According to the invention, the device is characterized by at least a first camera to create an image at least comprising the area from the mouth to the forehead of a patient lying on a table, as well as by a display device to display the picture taken. As an alternative to, or in addition to, the first camera and the display device, the eye-surgery device can comprise a laser projector for projection of a laser light pattern onto the patient's body as well as a guiding computer controlling the projector with an image signal output to which an image signal input of the projector is attached.
