• Unintentional coagulation spot (e.g. in the fovea)

• Clouding of the lens
Notes
u
Always use a suitable contact lens for retinal photocoagulation.
u
Avoid laser treatment if the patient underwent fluorescence
angiography on the same day prior to laser treatment. Because
the fluorescein injected into the patient takes several hours
before it is completely broken down, yellow light flashes may
be emitted at this time during treatment with a 532 nm laser
wavelength which are only partially blocked or not blocked at
all by the physician’s safety filter and can lead to the physician
being dazzled.
u
Do not use the VITE multi-spot option for patients who are
unable to fixate steadily (e.g. in the event of nystagmus,
tremor, Parkinson's, epilepsy, extremely poor eyesight, inability
to concentrate).
The complications are not limited to the list above. For further
information on a comprehensive list of complications consult the
relevant literature, professional associations and the legislation
applicable in your country.
