  • Instrument for ophthalmic laser surgery
    Patent number: 4520824
    Abstract: An instrument for ophthalmic laser surgery is disclosed, in which lasers are mounted for conjoint movement with a slit lamp on an X-Y table. The laser beams are directed into the patient's eye by a beam-directing assembly which pivots together with the slit lamp's microscope about a common axis, and which receives the laser beams along that common axis. The resulting structure greatly improves the ease of use of the laser arrangement and keeps the laser beams in alignment with the microscope at all times.
