PRP in CRVO

Outcome
The Optos follow-up picture shows the complete panretinal photocoagulation with equidistant spot distribution until the far periphery. After one month follow-up we noted the regression of the rubeosis iridis and stabilization of the IOP. This could be maintained until the 12 months follow-up.

Treatment
The treatment has been completed in only 2 sessions with 3200 impacts each session. The laser parameters were 20ms, 390µm, spacing 0.5, power 320mW.

Baseline
A 54-year-old woman presented to our institute with neovascular glaucoma complicating an ischemic central vein occlusion. Despite legal blindness of the patient in this eye we decided to perform a full scatter PRP in 2-3 sessions.

"Thanks to the pre-planning and computer-guided laser delivery, we could perform a complete PRP with equidistant spot distribution until the far periphery."
PRP Retreatment in PDR

Outcome
A total of 553 spots were applied in one session using two preplanned grids. The distribution of laser spots and gaps between spots is very uniform. Due to Navilas technique, laser spots are equal in size and without distortion in the far periphery.
Individual treatment approach of Dr. Emiliano Di Carlo, Department of Ophthalmology, Staedtisches Klinikum Karlsruhe, Germany

Treatment
Two separate patterns were preplanned, one for each nasal quadrant. Caution zones were set on particularly sensitive areas (macula and optic nerve head). Blood vessels were spared using the Navilas unique eraser function.

Baseline
A 45-years old patient with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) is showing severe typical signs of PDR on FA images, e.g. neovascularisation and leakages at the optic nerve head and microaneurysms and microhemorrhages.

Subthreshold CSCR Treatment

Outcome
About 2 months after laser treatment the subretinal fluid completely resolved and BCVA increased from 20/40 to 20/25.

Treatment
The microsecond pulsing laser treatment was planned using en face OCT image. We targeted flat RPE elevation in upper part of neuroepithelium detachment and covered it with 98 confluently planned laser spots (100 µm). Treatment parameters were 200 ms, 400 mW and 5% duty cycle.

Baseline
A 59 year old female presented in our offices with blurred vision during "a couple of months“ and was diagnosed with an acute episode of Central serous chorioretinopathy. Her BCVA was 20/40. We took an observation period of around two months followed to allow a spontaneous resolution. Due to unchanged size of edema after this observation period the patient was scheduled for microsecond pulsing laser.

Subthreshold DME Treatment

Outcome
Three months after Navilas microsecond pulsing treatment, a significant reduction of DME was shown on OCT macula thickness map and a significantly increased visual acuity from 20/250 up to 20/40 was shown.
Individual treatment approach of Dr. Emma Tsarukyan, Ophtalmological Center After S.V.Malayan, Yerevan, Armenia

Reporting
As microsecond pulses were used in a subthreshold treament manner, burns are not visible on the retina. Therefore, it´s impossible to see the treated areas. Only Navilas unique report function allows a documentation by marking treated areas and showing used parameters.
Individual treatment approach of Dr. Emma Tsarukyan, Ophtalmological Center After S.V.Malayan, Yerevan, Armenia

Treatment
On basis of an imported external OCT image, a confluent subthreshold pattern over the most thickened area was planned. Caution zones were placed directly on the macula and on the optic nerve head to prevent healthy and sensitive tissue from getting damaged. Titration was performed in continuous wave mode outside of the vessel arcs, microsecond pulses were used with 10% duty cycle, power was doubled after creating a barely visible burn while titrating.

Treatment
A confluent pattern with microsecond pulses was placed covering the leakage source of the CSCR subfoveal fluid. Caution zones were placed over healthy and sensitive tissue. Titration was performed in continuous wave mode outside of the large vascular arches.

Baseline
Blue laser autofluorescence (BAF), early phase fluorescence angiography (FA) and indocyanin green angiography (ICGA) images were used to detect the source of subfoveal leakage for a patient with recurrent CSCR.

Treating a Retinal Tear in the Far Periphery without LIO

Outcome Despite very far position of retinal tears, lesions could easily be encircled with spots. No switch to LIO was necessary. The patient was compliant during all the procedure and clearly commented on much higher tolerability as compared to the LIO. The patient stated that she is clearly preferring the treatment on Navilas as compared to the LIO.

Treatment All lesions could be visualized with Navilas. The treatment plan had been laid out before the treatment was successfully conducted.

Baseline A female patient presented with several retinal tears due to lattice degeneration in both eyes (left eye treated before on LIO, right eye schedule for a second visit). Due to significant pain during the treatment of the left eye the patient asked for alternatives to LIO.
Individual treatment approach courtesy of Dr. Neesurg Mehta, NYEE, New York, US
"Although we did not feel that the Navilas could provide adequate treatment for laser retinopexy, due to the patient's significant discomfort while using the LIO, we decided to use the Navilas. After the treatment, everyone was surprised as to how quickly it was performed and how comfortable the patient was during the procedure. We now understand why Navilas does not provide an LIO adapter."
