Since introduction of xenon photocoagulator and argon laser coagulator in ophthalmology, a great deal of advancement is seen in some ocular conditions, such as retinal diseases.
We recently developed Nd-YAG laser photocoagulator aiming the new powerful coagulator. Its light pump which emits 50 W of 1060 nm being connected with photoslitlamp by a glass fiber optics as to send a beam into human eye. 530 nm of second harmonic wave is also available from the coagulator. Histopathological changes of monkey retina by each laser were examined.
