Transscleral Micropulse Diode Laser for Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy
نویسندگان
چکیده
Micropulse Diode Laser Photocoagulation (MD) is designed to target The Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE) melanocytes while avoiding photoreceptors damage. The term “subthreshold” refers to photocoagulation that does not produce visible intraretinal damage or visible scarring either during or after treatment. It is well known that burns cannot be detected by clinical examination or by Intravenous Fluorescein Angiography (IVFA) and Fundus Autofluorescene (FAF) 1,2 .

Retinopathy of Prematurity Transscleral Retinal Photocoagulation (TSRPC) The 810 nm diode laser wavelength makes lens-sparing transscleral coagulation of the retina possible, and to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transscleral diode laser coagulation for threshold ROP, the authors performed a controlled clinical study. Forty eyes of 20 preterm infants (gestational age 24-29 weeks, mean 26.8...
متن کاملMicropulse transscleral diode laser cyclophotocoagulation in the treatment of refractory glaucoma.
BACKGROUND Transscleral diode laser cyclophotocoagulation (TSCPC) is an established method of treatment for refractory glaucoma, but is associated with significant complications. This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of a new form of TSCPC using micropulse diode laser and trans-pars plana treatment with a novel contact probe. METHODS Prospective interventional case series of 40 eyes of...
