Lasers, Nd:YAG, Ophthalmic
Definition : Neodymium-doped yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd:YAG) lasers, usually Q-switched, used to cause a photodisruptive effect in the eye (e.g., posterior capsulotomy), forming a plasma and generating immense localized mechanical shock waves (microexplosions) that, when highly focused, can destroy tissue. These lasers have built-in slit-lamp biomicroscopes or are coupled to a slit-lamp or indirect ophthalmoscope by fixed mirrors.
