A method and system of treating connective tissue to alter the biomechanical and fundamental properties of the connective tissue by forming perforations in the connective tissue to at least 90% of the depth or thickness of the connective tissue and maintaining the perforations in the connective tissue. The method alters the tissue to enhance the fundamental mechanisms involved in the immunology, biochemistry, and molecular genetics of the metabolism of the connective tissue. The connective tissue may be any desired connective tissue. The connective tissue of the eye may be removed to form a first desired pattern of perforations in the connective tissue of the eye at a first distance from the corneal center of the eye. Connective tissue is removed from the eye to form a second desired pattern of perforations in the tissue of the eye at a second distance from the corneal center of the eye.
