Abstract:
The phenomenon of a "local punch" of tissues in the zone of nano- or picosecond impulses of neodymium: YAG-laser radiation focusing allows to increase energy in the pulse by one order as compared with traditionally used energy. At this, in order to achieve the initial effect it becomes possible to reduce the number of shots by two orders and thus to increase the spot of radiation. The summary energy of action absorbed in the eye remains the same and that's why the number of complications doesn't increase. The widening of possibilities to choose a laser source for micro- and macroperforations allows, when prescribing the treatment, to more reliably consider clinical peculiarities in each concrete case.
