Safety and efficacy of frequency-doubled Nd-YAG laser photocoagulation of different types of corneal neovascularisation (NLPC): a prospective study.

Purpose: Frequency doubling of neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd-YAG) laser results in emission of photocoagulating 532 nm light compared with photolytic 1064 nm emission. The ergonomic benefits of solid-state lasers led to replacement of older coagulating lasers in ophthalmic centres by frequency-doubled Nd-YAG laser. Our study aims to evaluate safety and efficacy of frequency-doubled Nd-YAG laser for photocoagulation of corneal neovascularisation (NLPC).
