Abstract:
An ophthalmic laser apparatus has a proper exit angle from a probe to prevent a sclera from being damaged when the probe is used to treat an eye of a patient. A laser beam emitted from a laser oscillator is directed to a light cable receptacle connector by an optical system. The laser beam is directed to a delivery optical system or a probe by a light cable having a connecting part at one end thereof to be connected to the light cable receptacle connector. The probe is bent near an end thereof and the end of the probe is generally spherically shaped.
Abstract:
A laser treatment apparatus for irradiating a treatment part with a laser beam for treatment is disclosed. The apparatus includes a treatment light irradiation unit including a treatment light source which emits the treatment laser beam, an irradiation optical system which delivers the treatment laser beam emitted from the light source to irradiate the treatment part, and a laser emission end unit internally provided with a part of the irradiation optical system. The apparatus further includes a movement unit which moves the emission end unit with respect to the treatment part, a determination unit which determines an irradiation position of the treatment laser beam, and a control section which transmits a control signal to the movement unit based on a determination result by the determination unit and controls laser irradiation.
Abstract:
In a laser treatment apparatus, a treatment laser beam emitted from a laser source 10 is coaxially aligned to an aiming beam emitted from an aiming light source 18 by a beam splitter 20. The coaxial beams are delivered to a patient's eye E through a light delivery optical system, when a controller 60 controls an inclination angle of a filter 57 to change its spectral characteristics such that the filter cuts off the treatment laser beam during the treatment laser irradiation, while allows to the aiming beam to pass during the observation of the patient's eye.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an excellent non-electrolytic gold plating liquid which produces a gold plating layer firmly adhered to a surface selected from the group consisting of nickel, cobalt, palladium or a metal alloy containing nickel, cobalt or palladium, as well as a method for performing a non-electrolytic gold plating method using the non-electrolytic gold plating liquid. The non-electrolytic gold plating liquid comprises: (1) a water-soluble gold compound; (2) a complexation agent which stabilizes a gold ion in the plating liquid, but does not substantially dissolve nickel, cobalt or palladium; and (3) an anti-gold deposit agent which inhibits excess local etching or corrosion by substitution reaction between the metal surface and gold during the gold plating.
