Using this approach we derive the following values:
θ (rad) Φ (W)
MPE (W/cm
2
)
Pf a (cm) Z (cm)
LaserLink HS 0.020 2.5 0.00137 1 0.050 5.7
LaserLink Z 0.010 2.5 0.00137 1 0.100 9.8
LIO Keeler 0.024 2.5 0.00137 2 0.096 37
LIO Heine 0.022 2.5 0.00137 2 0.107 36
Endoprobe 0.140 2.5 0.00137 2 0.02 0
Lumenis 1000 0.010 2.5 0.00137 1 0.100 9.8
Insight 0.010 2.5 0.00137 1 0.100 9.8
Array LaserLink 0.010 2.5 0.00137 1 0.100 9.8
Which results in a worst case NOHD of:
NOHD [m]
LaserLink HS 24.2
LaserLink Z 48.3
LIO Keeler 28.8
LIO Heine 31.3
Endoprobe 4.87
Lumenis 1000 48.3
Insight 48.3
Array LaserLink 48.3
Calculated OD value is OD=3.7 for all delivery types.
All personnel who are within the NOHD are considered to be within the
controlled area and shall wear eye protection with a minimum optical
density (OD) of:
LaserLink HS OD 4+
LaserLink Z OD 4+
LIO Keeler OD 4+
LIO Heine OD 4+
Endoprobe OD 4+
Lumenis 1000 OD 4+
Insight OD 4+
Array LaserLink OD 4+
