The projector of test signs (PTA) is used for visual acuity as subjective method of measurement of vision refractive

The YAG (yttrium aluminum garnet) laser produces infrared light impulses which create tiny openings in the targeted tissue through photodisruption. These short bursts of energy are used to treat secondary cataracts and the iris, and some retinal problems in the back of the eye.

The procedure used to clear cloudy vision caused by secondary cataracts is called a posterior capsulotomy or laser posterior capsulotomy. YAG laser treatment offers the patient many benefits over traditional surgical procedures including:

• Virtually pain-free treatment
• No risk of infection
• Performed on an outpatient basis
• Only takes a few minutes and cost is reduced
• Faster healing with less trauma to the eye

With a YAG laser capsulotomy the patient sits in a chair with their head in a support that looks just like a regular eye examination station. The doctor focus’ the YAG laser onto the cloudy posterior capsule using a special aiming beam.

The laser beam passes through the clear cornea and lens implant. As the beam reaches its focal point on the cloudy capsule, the energy becomes highly concentrated causing disruption of the tissue and creating a tiny opening.
As the laser is activated a click may be heard. Multiple applications of the laser are usually required to create a new window in the cloudy capsule. The procedure only takes a few minutes and the patient is able to leave shortly after completion. In most cases pain medication is not necessary, occasionally however, some patients may require aspirin or something as doctor recomended. Good vision returns quickly.

This is one of the best cameras from Carl Zeiss – a German company. Fundus camera records the retinal images and movies for documentation and patient information apart from performing fundus fluorescein angiography. With the help of a new software, these images can be mailed to the patient and referring doctors within a few seconds.

Laser Katana’s is UV solid-state laser system for laser vision correction (LVC). This kind of refractive surgery is an alternative to the conservative methods of correction of refractive errors like near-sightedness (myopia), astigmatism or far-sightedness (hyperopia), eliminating or reducing the need for eyeglasses or contact lenses. The idea is to reshape the surface of the cornea, by removing tiny portions of tissue, in order to change the refractive power of the eye.
