Laser Iridotomy for Pupillary Block in Children with Endogenous Uveitis
Objective. Development of a differential approach to laser iridotomy in children with endogenous uveitis considering iris characteristics and the reaction of children’s eyes to different laser types.Patients and methods. Thirty-six laser iridotomies were

Clinical implication of recent randomized control trial in primary angle-closure disease management
Blindness due to primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) can be reduced significantly if the ongoing angle-closure process is arrested at an early stage.

Laser iridotomy in dark irides [PDF]
Laser iridotomy is the established treatment for angle-closure glaucoma. Nd:YAG (neodymium: yttrium-aluminium-garnet) laser iridotomy is challenging in the heavily pigmented irides of African and Asian patients,To present a modified laser iridotomy technique for use in dark irides.The argon laser was applied in two stages: firstly, low-power argon was ...

A ruby laser has been used to produce a permeable lesion in the iris to establish a communication between the anterior and posterior chambers. In a preliminary study in nine patients the technique gave satisfactory results in the prophylactic treatment of four cases of incipient closed-angle glaucoma and of two cases of iris bombé following uveitis.

Argon laser iridotomy was successfully performed on 47 out of 52 eyes of 35 patients by the continuous wave argon laser. The technique of argon laser iridotomy is described in detail. A number of complications were observed. The reasons for these are discussed, and measures for the avoidance of complications are suggested.

Possible explanations for different surface quality in laser cutting with 1 micron and 10 microns beams [PDF]
In laser cutting of thick steel sheets, quality difference is observed between cut surfaces obtained with 1 micron and 10 micron laser beams. This paper investigates physical mechanisms for this interesting and important problem of the wavelength ...

The effectiveness of early lens extraction with intraocular lens implantation for the treatment of primary angle-closure glaucoma (EAGLE): study protocol for a randomized controlled trial [PDF]
Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness. Although primary open-angle glaucoma is more common, primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) is more likely to result in irreversible blindness.

Analysis of hybrid Nd:Yag laser-MAG arc welding processes. [PDF]
In the hybrid laser-arc welding process, a laser beam and an electric arc are coupled in order to combine the advantages of both processes: high welding speed, low thermal load and high depth penetration thanks to the laser; less demanding on joint ...
