TY - JOUR PY - 1989// TI - Clinical observations of six cases of laser injury to the eye JO - Health physics A1 - Gabel, V. P. A1 - Birngruber, R. A1 - Lorenz, Bernd A1 - Lang, G. K. SP - 705 EP - 710 VL - 56 IS - 5 N2 - During the last decade, five patients with laser injuries were examined at the University of Munich Eye Clinic, in addition to one laser-injury patient at the University of Erlangen Eye Clinic. From a review of these cases, it is possible to gain an insight into factors that led to the eye injuries and to predict the clinical sequelae of laser retinal injury. A possible means of treatment, using an ophthalmic Q-switched Nd:YAG laser, is suggested for some types of retinal injury involving vitreal hemorrhage.
