title: Endolaser photocoagulation after vitrectomy on rabbit's eyes.
abstract: Ophthalmoscopic and histopathologic studies of endolaser photocoagulation after vitrectomy were carried out on rabbit's eyes. The endoprobe was connected to the Coherent "Novus 2,000" argon laser system. Under appropriate application the grayish white retinal lesions produced by argon green and argon all wavelength endolaser photocoagulation were similar ophthalmoscopically at a treatment power of 80-100 mw and exposure duration of 0.2s. Histopathologically, the characteristic changes of the retinal lesions produced by argon all wave-length were more significant than that produced by argon green endolaser photocoagulation. Scattered retinal photocoagulation can be done when the opaque medium is cleared on the operating table.
