Abstract
A laser treatment device for use in retinal regeneration. The laser treatment device includes a laser module that delivers a pulse or sequence of pulses having a pulse duration in the range of 50 ps to 500 ns, a wavelength in the range 500 nm to 900 nm, and a pulse energy in the range 100 μJ to 10 mJ. The laser treatment device also includes a uniform irradiance module that modifies an output beam profile of the laser module to produce a uniform treatment effect and a beam delivery and viewing module that delivers the laser pulse or pulses to the retina with a radiant exposure in the range of 8 mJ/cm2 to 8000 mJ/cm2 per pulse.
