Retinal Photocoagulation Laser

Retinal Photocoagulation Lasers are used to treat a variety of eye diseases including the two leading causes of blindness in the United States: Diabetic Retinopathy and Age-related Macular Degeneration. This precision laser can lower the risk of vision loss by cauterizing ocular blood vessels. Two types of Photocoagulation Lasers are used for conditions like Diabetic Retinopathy. The first is Focal Photocoagulation, which treats specific leaking blood vessels in the retina. The second is Scatter or Pan-retinal Photocoagulation; this type is used for more widespread damage over the retina. The risk of using a Retinal Photocoagulation Laser are low and side affects are rarely severe. Retinal Photocoagulation Lasers are often combined with other lasers to encompass a multitude of Ophthalmological surgical procedures. Deciding on which Retinal Photocoagulation Laser or combination laser for your practice depends on practice size, common procedures, patient dynamics as well as monetary investment.

DescriptionThe OcuLight® family of green laser photocoagulators includes the OcuLight GL and the OcuLight GLx models. Using the latest in solid-state technology, these lasers emit true continuous-wave (TrueCW™) green light at 532 nm. Patented solid-state The IQ 532™ Laser System from IRIDEX is a dual-port green laser for comprehensive ophthalmology. The device offers repeatable MicroPulse Laser Trabeculoplasty (MLT) for glaucoma therapy and Fovea-Friendly™ MicroPulse Laser Therapy1 for retinal The IQ 577™ is a state-of-the-art, 577 nm true yellow retina laser system, in a solid-state platform. This system also incorporates IRIDEX MicroPulse™ technology to offer physicians new treatment options for fine control and tissue-sparing proceduresThe OcuLight® Tx Green 532nm Laser is designed with higher power for conventional ophthalmic and otolaryngological procedures. Combining high power with high speed, the device offers superb efficiency with a full 2500 mW of deliverable laser energy. The TxCell™ Scanning Laser Delivery System from IRIDEX offers high versatility for higher volume. The TxCell Scanning Slit Lamp Adapter is coupled to the IRIDEX IQ 532™ or IQ 577™ laser, adding multiple modalities for treatment of glaucoma and
