Intraocular diathermy coagulation

J M Parel et al. Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol. 1983.

Abstract

Previously used transvitreal diathermy systems were found to be less than adequate. A new, safer 1.25 MHz medium frequency bipolar instrument is presented, which obviates most of the earlier drawbacks. Coagulation at the retinal surface can be obtained with as little as 0.15 J.
