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.
