He-ne Low Level Laser Therapeutic Applications for Treatment of Acute Iridocyclitis
نویسنده
چکیده
This investigation is carried out in two groups of patients with acute anterior uveitis (acute iridocyclitis). In every group, there were included 20 eyes. In the rst group, eyes were irradiated every day during a ten-day-period with He-Ne low level laser (Mediray 04, Optella Ltd., So a, Bulgaria) at emission wavelength of 632 nm and power density 0,1 mW/cm2. Second group was used as a control. In both groups, there was applied standard anti-in ammatory treatment of iridocyclitis in equal number of applications of the following: Tobradex, Ophthalar, Midrum, antibiotics drugs per os and non-steroid anti-in ammatory drugs per os, Dexamethazone para bulb. We observed signi cant suppression of the in ammatory reaction, stronger decrease of the ciliary ush, photophobia, epiphora, faster disappearance of the brinous exudate and posterior synechiae in the anterior chamber, as well as faster disappearance of the keratic precipitates, in the treated by low-level laser therapy (LLLT) eyes. For irradiated eyes by LLLT, we have found that the healing period is shortened signi cantly by 40 % (p<0,001). Our results revealed that LLLT application is appropriate and perspective for acute iridocyclitis treatment.

Role of low level laser in ameliorating the damaging effects of gamma irradiation on mice liver
Background: Exposure to ionizing radiation is inevitable. Using of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) stimulates tissue repair and reduces inflammation. The objective of the present study aimed at evaluating the therapeutic efficacy of Helium-Neon (He-Ne) laser in stimulating the reparative processes in the liver of mice after whole body gamma-irradiation (WBγ-I). Materials and Methods: Two hundred...

Artemia, as live food, is of vital importance in aquaculture. In this study, we have studied the helium-neon (He-Ne) laser beam with 10 mw on the hatching and life span of Artemia cysts. He-Ne laser irradiation was performed with a 10 mw power at 3, 4 and 5 h irradiation periods. Cysts were hatched by standard method. Hatching percentage after 4 h of irradiation was more than other treatments a...
