title: [Possibilities of the clinical use of a new Soviet laser device on the anterior and posterior segments of the eye].
abstract: A new Soviet laser device for multiple-purpose ophthalmologic application is described. The design is based on neodymium-doped glass laser with radiation at a 1.06 micron wavelength in a Q-spoiled mode and YAG laser with radiation frequency doubling at a wavelength of 0.532 micron in continuous operation. Clinical potentialities of this laser design in the treatment of abnormalities of the anterior and posterior segment of the eye were studied in the treatment of 48 patients (48 eyes). The results evidence that the device is fit for coagulation as well as for mechanical destruction of tissue.
