Micropulse Yellow Laser
The Micropulse Yellow Laser represents an innovative laser technology that delivers extremely short light pulses. This characteristic allows for selective and precise treatment of retinal diseases, while minimizing the risks associated with traditional laser treatments.
How the Micropulse Yellow Laser Works
The Micropulse Yellow Laser represents an innovative technology for treating retinal diseases. Thanks to its ability to deliver highly controlled light pulses, this laser effectively and safely treats a broad spectrum of conditions, from the retinal periphery to the macula. Key clinical applications include:
- Neovascular Age-related Macular Degeneration: Boosting response to anti-VEGF treatments.
- Central Serous Chorioretinopathy: Reducing edema and promoting healing.
- Diabetic and Post-Thrombotic Macular Edema: Improving visual acuity and reducing visual distortion.
- Subfoveal Retinal Detachment: Accelerating the reabsorption of subretinal fluid.
- Radiation Macular Edema: Reducing inflammation and enhancing visual function.
The Micropulse Yellow Laser offers numerous advantages over traditional treatments, including greater precision, less invasiveness, and a reduced risk of complications.
Are there contraindications for Micropulse Yellow Laser treatment?
The Micropulse Yellow Laser procedure is gentle and doesn’t involve significant risks.
Who Can Benefit from Micropulse Yellow Laser Treatment?
The Micropulse Yellow Laser is indicated for the treatment of numerous retinal conditions, including:
- Macular Edema: Caused by retinal vein occlusions, diabetes mellitus, central serous chorioretinopathy, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), and other chronic inflammations.
- Glaucoma: Used in combination with other therapies.
- Peripheral Retinal Disorders: Such as retinal tears, retinopathies, and vascular occlusions.
This laser technology can also be utilized as a complementary therapy to intravitreal treatments, offering a multimodal therapeutic approach.
What's the Difference from Other Lasers?
Compared to traditional lasers, which induce thermal coagulation of tissues, the Micropulse Yellow Laser acts more selectively, stimulating the retinal pigment epithelium cells without causing collateral damage. This treatment modality, although requiring slightly longer recovery times than traditional laser, offers significant clinical results, especially in macular pathologies involving the fovea. Each case is evaluated individually to customize the treatment.
