Navigated Retina Laser Therapy as a Novel Method for Laser Retinopexy of Retinal Tears

Abstract

To describe the use of a navigated laser system for the treatment of retinal tears. A planned pattern laser retinopexy was performed using a navigated laser photocoagulator incorporating rapid panretinal photocoagulation technology with an individualized target overlay to produce a 3 × 3 square pattern surrounding a horseshoe tear. Institutional review board approval was not applicable for this case. Successful laser retinopexy 360° around the tear was achieved. In select cases, a navigated laser system may be utilized for the treatment of retinal tears. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina. 2018;49:e206-e209.].
