Abstract

Background: Neodymium: YAG (Nd: YAG) laser and argon laser has been used to treat premacular hemorrhage either alone or rarely in combination. Materials and Methods: We describe a new technique of treating premacular hemorrhage by performing hyaloidotomy using a combination of argon green-Nd: YAG laser. We utilized subthreshold energy levels of Nd: YAG laser of 2.0 mJ as compared to the normal recommendation of 3.6-50 mJ. Results and Conclusions: This technique is easy, effective, and safe to manage premacular hemorrhage. The principle behind this combined laser treatment was to make the internal limiting membrane (ILM) taut by initial exposure to argon green laser, which allowed us to employ the subthreshold energy levels of Nd: YAG laser. We would like to assess the role of this combined treatment modality in comparison to other modalities, including solitary laser therapy in the management of premacular hemorrhage by performing a prospective, randomized long-term study.
氩绿- nd: YAG双激光后玻璃体切开术:一种治疗黄斑前出血的创新方法
背景:钕钇铝石榴石(Nd: YAG)激光和氩激光已被单独或罕见地联合用于治疗黄斑前出血。材料和方法:我们描述了一种治疗黄斑前出血的新技术,即使用氩绿- nd: YAG激光联合进行玻璃体切开术。我们使用了2.0 mJ的Nd: YAG激光的亚阈值能级,与正常推荐的3.6-50 mJ相比。结果与结论:该方法治疗黄斑前出血简便、有效、安全。这种联合激光治疗的原理是通过初始暴露于氩绿激光使内部限制膜(ILM)绷紧,这使我们能够使用Nd: YAG激光的亚阈值能级。我们希望通过一项前瞻性、随机的长期研究来评估这种联合治疗方式与其他治疗方式的作用,包括单独激光治疗在黄斑前出血的治疗中。
