Investigation of Ocular Hazard from Lasers in Human Subjects.
Abstract
Results are presented of experimental studies to determine the threshold level for minimal retinal lesions produced in the human eye by argon laser radiation. A description is given of the equipment used and the method of data recording. Data from patients suffereing from diabetic retinopathy was compared with data from non-diabetic patients. The lesion formation threshold level on one volunteer with a perfectly normal eye was noted. One year following the exposures pigment formation was observed.. (Author)
