Abstract

During the study of diode laser radiation effect in micropulse mode on culture cells of human retinal pigment epithelium it was revealed that the quota of dead cells was a minimum. Besides, a certain conformity between dead cells quota and parameter characteristics of laser radiation. Based on the performed experimental study it was revealed that for a work using the Iris Medical IQ 810 diode laser in the micropulse mode following parameters: duration of pulse set--300ms, duration of function--9.1%, power--750mW are safe for retinal pigment epithelium cells. Rationales of safety in application of the infrared diode laser radiation in micropulse mode in clinic for treatment of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) exampled by cell culture of human retinal pigment epithelium.
