It details how lasers are used to treat a variety of ocular conditions, such as cataract and glaucoma, addressing the optometrist's role in laser applications, such as referrals and post-procedure complication management.
Download or read book Lasers in Ophthalmic Surgery written by David B. Karlin and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1995 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ophthalmology was the first medical discipline to embrace lasers, starting with the treatment of retinal diseases in the 1960s. Unlike other disciplines where the trend is moving away from the use of the laser in surgery, in ophthalmology it is an accepted treatment option in all subspecialities: eyelids, cornea, iris, ciliary body, lens, retina, and retro-orbital structures. 60 per cent of all laser surgery is ophthalmic surgery. The text presents not only current uses but speculates as to future applications of lasers.

Download or read book Lasers in Medicine written by Gregory T. Absten and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lasers were developed out of Einstein's theories, but the first work ing device was not produced until 1960. Since then, they have found applications in many areas of medicine, and hold promise for many more. This book has been written to provide a basic found ation on lasers - what they are, how they work, and what they can do for the patient. It assumes only a basic scientific background in the reader, and has many simple and clear diagrams. It should be of interest to clinicians, surgeons, nurses, safety officers, patients and interested laymen. The book consists of six chapters, and following a glossary of technical terms, begins with a brief discussion of the physics behind laser action. This section is illustrated with clear diagrams, and is written in an easy-to-follow style. It describes how laser light originates, and how it differs fundamentally from ordinary light. The remainder of the book is concerned with the use of lasers in medicine. Chapter 2 deals with the various ways in which a laser beam can interact with tissue, and shows how this depends on the particular laser being used. The following chapter describes some properties of those lasers which are most usually used in current medical practice, but also discusses new and experimental develop ments. There are various methods of getting the laser beam to the target tissue, and these are described in Chapter 4.

Book excerpt: This book discusses the new era of modern retinal laser therapy and its clinical applications. While the photocoagulation era universally presupposed the therapeutic necessity of laser-induced retinal damage, the modern retinal laser therapy is equally opposed to this idea. The evidence for this sea-change in the understanding of retinal laser is well presented within this book, and the conceptual and clinical consequences are discussed with particular emphasis on the emergence of retinal laser therapy as the first reasonable preventive and restorative intervention for the most important retinal disorders. Finally, the future of modern retinal laser therapy is highlighted with respect to coming technological advances, remaining challenges, and the place of retinal laser in the management of retinal disease. This book is an essential resource for all ophthalmic residents and clinicians seeking a clear and concise guide to modern retinal laser therapy in their everyday practice.
