Retinal Burn Thresholds for Exposure to a Frequency-Doubled Neodymium Laser.

摘要

The eyes of rhesus monkeys were exposed to the radiation from a frequency-doubled neodymium laser. Retinal damage was assessed with a fundus camera at one hour and 24hours after exposure. The threshold for a 50% probability of damage (ED50) was determined from the data. The threshold for a single 15-nsec pulse using the one-hour lesion appearance criterion was determined to be 3.02 microjoules per pulse at the cornea. (Author)
