Which Laser Glasses to Use for Laser Retinopexy?

Working in laser retinopexy and wondering which type of laser glasses to use? The laser you’re using to seal a tear in someone’s retina is obviously capable of burning your own retina. To protect your eyes, you’ll want to wear laser safety glasses during the laser retinopexy procedure.

LASER SAFETY GLASSES FOR LASER RETINOPEXY

For procedures involving Argon lasers, we recommend using Argon KTP laser safety glasses (LS-AKP). These glasses will protect your eyes from the Argon laser during the procedure, ensuring your safety from stray, scattered, or reflected laser beams.

Argon lasers are used for laser retinopexy due to their ability to precisely target the retina, which also means they can cause damage if proper safety measures are not taken. Therefore, wearing the right laser safety glasses is crucial to prevent accidental retinal burns.

WHY CHOOSE ARGON KTP LASER SAFETY GLASSES?

PROTECTION

The Argon KTP laser safety glasses block wavelengths from OD 6+ @190-532nm
OD 6+ @5000-11000nm, offering comprehensive protection.

SAFETY STANDARDS

The AKP laser safety lens features a polycarbonate orange lens filter providing effective laser protection. They offer a visible light transmission of 46.4% and meet ANSI Z87.1 and ANSI Z136.1 safety standards.

COMFORT AND STYLE

Our selection of laser safety glasses includes modern and attractive styles. This not only ensures comfort but also helps keep your patients calm and relaxed during the procedure.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT FRAME

During retinopexy procedures, it’s important to consider the frame style. As these procedures are often outpatient, the patient will see you in your laser glasses. Wearing modern wraparound frames can make you appear more approachable and keep the patient at ease.
