Notre recherche porte sur la greffe de cornée et plus généralement sur la découpe
précise dans le volume du tissu. Outre la nécessité d’utiliser des longueurs d’onde pas ou
peu absorbées par le tissu, on doit se placer dans le régime d’interaction appelé
« photodisruption » ou « claquage optique ».

Both « photodisruption » and « claquage optique » in inverted commas. Better avoid both then LOL.

"claquage optique" is often between inverted commas which would probably be a reason to avoid the term.

Merci

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Tony M: Seems likely, though I have to say 'claquage' is used for 'breakdown' in electrical too, so I'm just slightly suspicious of a too-literal translation?
3 mins
  -> this appears to be the term favoured by FR natives c.f. disruption optique
agree  Isabelle Berquin
