Substitute, like any ':' command, may be prefixed with a line range.
E.g:
:1,$s/all lines/every line/
:/from/,/to/s/all lines in range/including from and to/
If you mark the start/end of your range with arbitrary letters
(using the 'm' operator -- e.g: 'ma' and 'mb')
than you may refer these marks as well with the apostrophe:
:'a,'bs/from mark a/to mark b included/

How about a proper regexp? Tested in vim:
@x\|$x[[][0-9]*\]
(the end part -- [0-9]*\] -- is not important for finding it, but
only if you want to substitute including the indexing part)
