TY - JOUR PY - 1980// TI - Retinal lesions due to ultraviolet laser exposure JO - Investigative ophthalmology and visual science A1 - Schmidt, R. E. A1 - Zuclich, J. A. SP - 1166 EP - 1175 VL - 19 IS - 10 N2 - The morphologic appearance of retinal lesions induced by 325 nm radiation from a helium cadmium laser is described. The damage is limited primarily to the outer retinal layers with only minimal or moderate retinal pigment epithelial changes. The lowest radiant exposure to produce a light microscopic lesion was 0.15 J/cm2, which is about a factor of two below the ophthalmoscopic threshold.
