NIDEK CO.,LTD. YC-200 Ophthalmic YAG Laser System

The OPHTHALMIC YAG LASER SYSTEM YC-200 is an ophthalmic pulsed-laser system consisting of a main body containing the laser, a head rest, a control box, and a connector box. The device uses a 1,064 nm pulsed Nd: YAG laser as the treatment beam source. Laser pulses are generated using a method called passive Q-switching. With this method, short high-power pulses can be emitted. At the target, the emitted pulses cause photodisruption, which is fragmentation of tissue using light energy.
