4.1. Safety Precautions
Anyone in the laser treatment controlled area during laser operation (including the operator,
all assistants, and the patient)
MUST
wear the protective eyewear supplied with this laser
system.
Warning:
The protective laser eyewear has an optical density (OD) rating > 5.0 for
810 nm AND 980 nm laser emission (see specification sheet with eyewear).
ONLY
wear the protective eyewear supplied with this laser system.
Warning:
All personnel in the laser treatment controlled area
MUST
wear laser safety
eyewear.
Warning:
Replace any protective laser eyewear with eyewear from the manufacturer
if there is any damage.
Warning: NEVER
look directly into the distal end of the optical fiber connected to an
active laser device
WITH
or
WITHOUT
the appropriate laser-emission protective
eyewear.
Warning:
NEVER
aim the laser light directly into the eyes.
Warning:
NEVER
direct the laser beam at anything other than the area to be treated.
Direct or indirect eye contact with the output beam can cause serious damage,
irreparable corneal and/or retinal damage, and possible blindness to one or both
eyes.
Warning:
If you suspect injury, such as direct exposure to the eyes, seek medical
attention immediately.
Warning:
FAILURE TO COMPLY
with all safety instructions and warnings may
expose everyone in the controlled laser treatment area to harmful levels of laser
radiation and/or dangerous levels of electrical current.
Warning: FAILURE TO COMPLY
with the application techniques listed in the
manual may lead to exposure to harmful levels of laser radiation.
Recommendation: DO NOT
allow any nonessential personnel into the laser treatment
controlled area during any laser procedure.
Recommendation: NEVER
allow untrained personnel to operate this laser system
unless directly supervised by a properly trained and experienced individual.
