Picosecond Neodymium: Yttrium Lithium Fluoride (Nd:YLF) Laser Peripheral Iridotomy

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1995
We evaluated the picosecond neodymium:yttrium lithium fluoride (Nd:YLF) laser for performing peripheral iridotomies of predetermined size and shape in various types of irides.In the first part of the study, we determined operating parameters from performing 60 iridotomies in human cadaver eyes.
