Any precaution measured should be taken during any surgical process. All
personnel should always wear the protective gears such as, gown, cap, mask,
latex gloves, and safety goggles.
Caution - Laser plume may contain viable tissue particulates
When positioning the Laser for treatment always keep the Aiming beam in a
good focus so that the resultant tissue effect is clinically satisfactory.
The beam divergence of the Laser beam from the Endoprobes is higher in air
than in a fluid medium so when using the Endoprobes in air a higher power
setting will be required to get an equivalent burn as seen on the retina at a given
distance.
When using the LIO always ensure that the headpiece is adjusted to be firmly fit
to the doctor’s head so that good control is always maintained over the beam
positioning. The Illumination Lamp housing can get warm but this is normal.
When using any Laser Contact Lens in treatments, it is essential that they are
effective and suitable for the procedure with the LightLas 532 Laser. Due to the
individual len coating can affect the treatment performance quality which may
result in poor treatment.
The optical fibers that connect from the any/all Laser Delivery units to the Laser
Console must always be treated with care. Never try to bend the fibers into loops
smaller than 200mm in diameter instead just leave them loose or draped over a
suitable surface. Never allow a fiber to run along the floor or to be in walkways
where they could be stepped on or crushed with a trolley wheel. Also ensure
that the fiber ends are kept covered whenever they are not inserted in the Laser
unit so they remain clean which will extend their lifetime. Avoid touching the
fiber ends as this may leave deposits on them, which can cause damage when
the laser is fired into the fiber.
