MicroPulse is a tissue-sparing innovation in laser therapy for the eyes. Laser therapy is used to treat conditions such as macular edema, retinal tears, and glaucoma. Instead of a continuous laser beam, the MicroPulse technology delivers the laser energy in short pulses with intervening rest periods. It allows the tissue to cool between laser pulses, minimizing or preventing tissue damage. Treatment risks are reduced or eliminated, with increased patient comfort than with conventional, continuous-wave laser treatment.
The applications include diabetic macular edema (DME), central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) and even proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR).
