In addition to providing the required laser safety eyewear, take the following steps to secure
the treatment room or controlled treatment area:
1. To alert personnel before they enter the controlled area, place a warning sign on the out-
side of the treatment room door when the laser is in use.
2. Close the treatment room door during operation of the system.
3. External door interlocks that automatically disable the system when the treatment room
door is opened may be installed.
NOTE
A blocking barrier, screen or curtain capable of blocking or filtering
the laser beam may be placed to create a controlled area inside a
large treatment room. The barrier should be made of material that
can withstand the power of the treatment beam for the maximum
exposure time, relative to the configuration of the controlled area
and the treatment parameters for the specific medical application.
Depending on the procedure, the physician must protect the patient’s eyes with either laser
safety eyewear or with diffuse metal eye shields.
Additional Ocular Protection
WARNING
Never substitute non-laser prescription eyewear for the appropriate
laser safety eyewear, as severe damage could occur.
WARNING
Use caution when performing procedures around the eyes. Severe
and irreversible eye damage may occur from direct or indirect
exposure to treatment beams.
WARNING
Never look directly into any optical lens, optical fiber, handpiece or
laser system aperture while the system is energized. Severe eye
damage could occur. Turn off the system before inspecting any
delivery system or laser component.
