Abstract
The invention relates to a modular Modular Laser Therapy Device (MLTD) to be used by ophthalmologists for eye surgery that integrates three most frequently used therapeutic devices into a single, compact unit enabling the treatment with capsulotomy, vitreolysis and iridotomy, with selective laser trabeculoplasty and with photocoagulation. While providing such modular laser device a method is provided for optomechanically coupling different ophthalmic modules into the single unit using two laser sources.
Claims18
An ophthalmic laser system comprising:
- a first laser module operable to produce a first beam at a first wavelength;
- a second laser module operable to produce a second beam at a second wavelength;
- a first beam path incorporating an exit objective module, the first beam path directing the first beam to an eye of a patient;
- a second beam path incorporating a non-linear crystal and the exit objective module, wherein the non-linear crystal converts the first beam or the second beam to a third beam at a third wavelength, the second beam path directing the third beam to the eye of the patient;
- and
- a third beam path incorporating the exit objective module, the third beam path directing the second beam to the eye of the patient,
- wherein the beam directed to the eyes of the patient is generated by either the first laser module or the second laser module.
