Transpupillary Diode Laser Retinal Photocoagulation for the Treatment of Retinopathy of Prematurity: Experience in Southern Iran

Effects of Laser Physical Parameters on Lesion Size in Retinal Photocoagulation Surgery: Clinical OCT and Experimental Study

Introduction: The aim of the present study was to determine burn intensity in retinal laser photocoagulation based on laser parameters; wavelength, power, beam size and pulse duration, using Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), fundus camera, physical eye model and computer simulation in a clinical study.Materials and Methods: Participants were 10 adult patients between 50-80 years with prolifer...

THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS OF LASER PHOTOCOAGULATION AND VITRECTOMY IN EALES\'DISEASE

Eales' disease is an idiopathic obliterative retinal vasculopathy that is treated with laser photocoagulation, and/or vitrectomy. In order to determine visual outcomes and regression of retinal neovascularization following scattered peripheral retinal photocoagulation, and/or vitrectomy in cases with Eales' disease, we did a retrospective study of the records of these patients treated in La...

Transscleral Diode Photocoagulation of Large Retinal and Choroidal Vascular Lesions

BACKGROUND Transscleral retinal photocoagulation with a diode laser is used in glaucoma refractory to medical and surgical treatment. Our main research question was how the technique performed in large vascular lesions associated with hemangiomas of the retina and choroid. METHODOLOGY/CLINICAL FINDINGS Patient charts were retrieved from the hospital files for patients who underwent the proced...

Rapid onset anterior segment complication following diode laser photocoagulation for retinopathy of prematurity: a case report

Laser treatment for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) has been proven to be beneficial. We present a case of uncommon, progressive anterior eye segment complication treated with diode laser photocoagulation for ROP which subsequently required surgical management. A 1210 g premature infant, born at 28 weeks of gestation, had bilateral stage 3 threshold ROP on his first screening, at 5 weeks of ag...
