Laser coagulation: History & Applications

Laser coagulation or laser photocoagulation surgery is used to treat a number of eye diseases and has become widely used. During the procedure, a laser is used to finely cauterize ocular blood vessels to attempt to bring about various therapeutic benefits. The ruby laser was first used in the 1960s but its red wavelength was less effective than green…
