Key Features

• Argon 514 nm Wavelength – Gentle, Effective Treatment: Returns the original argon photocoagulation wavelength (514 nm) in a solid-state design. User experience reports associate 514 nm treatment with lower pain sensation and less patient stress compared with 532 nm green KTP lasers. Reduced discomfort can support shorter sessions and improved patient acceptance during repeat treatments.
• Slit Lamp Integration & Workflow Flexibility: Supplied as a classic slit-lamp–coupled photocoagulator; compatible with a wide variety of slit lamps in routine practice settings. Table-top placement keeps all controls within easy reach; single-hand operation promotes efficient chairside workflow. Posterior segment–optimised optics with coaxial laser coupling for precise aiming and energy delivery. Available illumination choices (LED or halogen) to match clinic preference.
• Precision Optics & Spot Control: Freely selectable spot sizes from 50 µm up to 600 µm (configuration dependent) support focal, grid, and panretinal patterns. Integrated, color-neutral protection filter preserves a natural view of retinal anatomy while safeguarding the physician’s eyes. Large, high-contrast display remains readable off-axis, aiding setup and parameter checks during procedures.
• “Yes to Argon” Comfort Advantages: Lower perceived pain can decrease patient anxiety for subsequent sessions. Potential for shorter treatment times when patients tolerate sustained photocoagulation.
• L-Ord Adapter: Upgrade Existing Diagnostic Slit Lamps: Couples the Classic 514 laser to compatible HS-style slit lamps, converting them into fully functional retinal coagulators.* Clear-View-Filter technology maintains high color accuracy and unobstructed visualization when switching between diagnostic and laser modes. Stable mechanics designed for long service life; optics removable when not in use. Variable manual spot adjustment (approx. 50–500 µm) through the adapter.
• Endocoagulation & OR Flexibility (FOX Platform): For posterior-segment surgery, an endo-version of the portable FOX laser (available in 514 nm or 810 nm) can be paired with A.R.C. Endo-Probes. The compact FOX platform also supports transscleral retinal coagulation via a laser indirect ophthalmoscope (LIO) in the clinic.
