LASER stands for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. It is a high-energy beam of light which is used to treat the eyes in various ways. LASERs used in the OPD (Outpatient department) are mainly used for the management of retinal and anterior segment conditions.\ The eyes will need to be dilated prior to the treatment. LASER can be delivered either by indirect ophthalmoscope (LIO) or by slit lamp. LIO is usually preferred if the area to be treated is in the far periphery or when the media is very hazy due to cataract or vitreous haemorrhage. A contact lens needs to be applied to the eye before slit lamp delivery of LASER. Hence, anaesthetic drops are applied before commencing slit lamp delivery of LASER. The procedure usually lasts for about 5-15 minutes.
