Settings and Clinical Applications of Subthreshold Micropulse Laser Therapy: A Review. [PDF]
Subthreshold lasers operate below the threshold of visible tissue damage, thereby preventing ophthalmoscopically visible thermal damage to the chorio-retinal layers. They could represent a safe and effective alternative and/or adjunctive procedure to conventional lasers in treating diabetic macula edema (DME), central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR ...

Micropulse diode laser photocoagulation for central serous chorio‐retinopathy
AbstractPurpose: Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) is usually characterized by a localized detachment of the neurosensory retina that is self‐limiting. However, some cases may persist or recur leading to degenerative changes of the retinal pigment epithelium and the neurosensory retina resulting in severe visual loss and requiring intervention ...

Comparative study between subthreshold (micropulse) laser direct application to the edematous macula versus direct application to the peripheral healthy retina in the treatment of diabetic macular edema. [PDF]
Background: Subthreshold (micropulse) laser is an effective modality in the treatment of diabetic macular edema that avoids possible complications of conventional laser photocoagulation and anti-vascular endothelial growth factor. Regardless of where the
