The Er:YAG laser (λ=2.94μm) is an effective tool in vitreo-retinal surgery. Pulsed mid-infrared (λ=6.45μm) radiation from the Free Electron Laser has been touted as a potentially superior cutting tool. To date, use of this laser has been limited

Our previous studies using rabbits and monkeys showed that the Amide II wavelength (6.45 micrometers ) produced by the FEL could efficiently produce an optic nerve sheath fenestration with minimal damage. In order to determine if the technology safel

One glaucoma challenge is the treatment of leaking trabeculectomy blebs. Simple methods such as patching, autologous blood injection, compression sutures or cyanoacrylate glue application often fail. Because the conjunctiva is thin and ischemic, it o

Purpose: To determine if the free electron laser (FEL) energy can be delivered to a small space to perform optic nerve sheath fenestration with minimal acute nerve damage. Methods: A 530 mm hollow waveguide probe was designed. Optic nerve sheath fene

Glaucoma results in permanent vision loss and affects the peripheral vision initially. It is present in 22.5 million peopleworldwide and is the 3' cause of blindness. Present tonometers are not ideal for intraocular pressure measurements in alleyes.

The Free Electron Laser (FEL) at Vanderbilt University is tunable from 2 μm to 9 μm in the mid-infrared spectrum, which is capable of controlling predicted laser-tissue interaction by selecting a specific wavelength. However, delivery of this laser

Purpose: To study the healing process in cultured human corneas after Er:YAG laser ablation. Methods: Human cadaver corneas within 24 hours post mortem were ablated with a Q- switched Er:YAG laser at 2.94 micrometer wavelength. The radiant exposure w

Purpose: To determine if the Heidelberg Retinal Laser Tomograph (HRT) and Flowmeter (HRF) can be modified to obtain images in supine patients. Methods: A mount was customized to securely attach the Heidelberg scanning head to an operating microscope

The purpose of this study is to investigate the healing process in cultured human cornea after infrared Free Electron Laser ablation. Fresh human cadaver cornea was ablated using the Free Electron Laser at the amide II band peak (6.45 micrometers ).
