About the OcuLight SL and SLx
Introduction
The
IRIS
Medical
OcuLight
SL
and
OcuLight
SLx
(SL/SLx)
are
advanced
laser
systems.
The
laser
source,
power
supply,
and
control
panel
are
combined
in
a
single
unit
making
it
portable
and
easy
to
stack
on
a
cart,
counter
or
other
treatment
room
instruments.
The
laser
console
uses
modern
semiconductor
diode
laser
technology
to
produce
a
visible
treatment
beam
at
a
nominal
wavelength
of
810
nm.
Diode
lasers
are
efficient
and
consume
very
little
electrical
power,
thus
the
console
may
be
operated
from
a
standard
power
outlet
(115/230V)
and
does
not
require
water
cooling
or
tube
replacements.
The
laser
console
uses
a
solid
‐
state
electronic
switching
power
supply
that
meets
strict
U.S.
and
international
performance
and
safety
standards.
The
laser
is
controlled
by
a
dedicated
microprocessor
that
continuously
monitors
the
safe
function
of
all
subsystems.
This
manual
contains
important
information
on
how
to
unpack,
setup,
operate,
troubleshoot
and
maintain
this
system.
Keep
it
available
for
reference.
Potential Adverse Effects
Improper
use
of
the
SL/SLx
can
result
in
adverse
effects.
Follow
the
instructions
for
use
described
in
this
operator
manual.
CAUTION:
Federal
(U.S.)
law
restricts
this
device
to
sale
by
or
on
the
order
of
a
physician.
CAUTION:
Use
of
controls
or
adjustments
or
performance
of
procedures
other
than
those
specified
herein
may
result
in
hazardous
radiation
exposure.
CAUTION:
Laser
plume
may
contain
viable
tissue
particulates.
Indications for Use
The
SL/SLx
is
indicated
for
retinal
photocoagulation,
laser
trabeculoplasty,
transscleral
cyclophotocoagulation,
transscleral
retinal
photocoagulation
and
iridotomy.
