NIDEK CO.,LTD. MC-500 Multicolor Laser Photocoagulator

The NIDEK Multicolor Laser Photocoagulator MC-500 is a laser photocoagulator for ophthalmology with the light source of wavelengths 647, 577, and 532 nm. As the conventional laser photocoagulators, the MC-500 can be used for retinal photocoagulation for treatment of ocular fundus diseases like diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, retinopathy of prematurity, and retinal detachment, or for laser iridotomy and laser trabeculoplasty for treatment of glaucoma. The device incorporates two types of lasers (diode-pumped solid state laser and laser diode) which enable efficient obtainment of laser beam oscillation of each wavelength. As the conventional device, various types of laser delivery units can be used. Therefore, transpupillary photocoagulation can be performed using various delivery units such as slit lamps and binocular indirect ophthalmoscope.
