8.3. Eye Safety Instructions
8.3.1. Eye Safety Filter (OD > 5)
The eyes of the operating physician are protected by the
eye safety filter installed to the slit lamp. The filter ensures
that all laser radiation coming through the binoculars has
been attenuated below class 1 limit. Thus, the physician
should never look past the binoculars during treatment.
8.3.2. Laser Safety Eyewear Requirements
Use of appropriate laser safety eyewear (OD>5 for 532nm
laser radiation) is required for all personnel in the treatment
room.
8.4. Caution for High Power
The system enables treatment with a high laser power,
even up to 1500 mW. Therefore it is essential to proceed
carefully during treatment, that is to start with low power in
single spot mode and increase the power gradually until
the coagulated spots become visible. By using the lowest
power required for the treatment, the patient is protected
from possible retinal damage.
