Abstract: We study 2-dimensional submanifolds of the space $mathbbL({mathbbH}^3)$ of oriented geodesics of hyperbolic 3-space, endowed with the canonical neutral K"ahler structure. Such a surface is Lagrangian iff there exists a surface in ${mathbbH}^3$ orthogonal to the geodesics of $Sigma$. We prove that the induced metric on a Lagrangian surface in $mathbbL({mathbbH}^3)$ has zero Gauss curvature iff the orthogonal surfaces in ${mathbbH}^3$ are Weingarten: the eigenvalues of the second fundamental form are functionally related. We then classify the totally null surfaces in $mathbbL({mathbbH}^3)$ and recover the well-known holomorphic constructions of flat and CMC 1 surfaces in ${mathbbH}^3$.
