Abstract

BACKGROUND: Laser-induced ocular injuries are of public interest, especially when caused by strangers. Clinical signs and follow-up: Two laser-induced maculopathies were presented which had been caused by strangers. Morphological findings were shown by funduscopy and Spectralis Domain OCT follow-up.

CONCLUSION: Severe retina injuries can be induced by laser pointers of higher classes.
