半导体激光在眼科临床的应用进展

半导体激光所发射的辐射光能被眼部的介质所传导,组织吸收光能后将其转化为热能,从而使局部温度升高,蛋白变性,细胞遭到破坏,组织凝固。再加上半导体激光器的使用方便,使得其在眼科的使用范围越来越广泛,从眼前节到眼后节,青光眼,眼底病都已应用到半导体激光治疗,还有屈光方面的疾病也正在配合半导体激光在进行治疗。本文将主要介绍半导体激光在眼科临床各方向的应用及其以后的展望。

Progress of application of semiconductor laser in ophthalmology clinics

The radiation energy of light launched by semiconductor laser is conducted by ocular region's medium. The tissues absorb the light energy and transform it into heat energy, causing the rise of local temperature and the protein denaturation. Cells are destroyed and tissues are coagulated. Since semiconductor laser is easy to use, it is used increasingly widespread in ophthalmology depart-ment. Semiconductor laser is used to treat eye diseases including those on ocular anterior and posterior seg-ments, glaucoma and eyeground. It is also used in refrac-tive diseases. This article summarized the application and prospects of semiconductor laser in the ophthalmology clinics.
