A continuous-wave carbon dioxide laser operating at a wavelength of 10.6 microns has been applied transvitreally by means of a miniature articulating arm and intraocular probe to produce chorioretinal lesions in albino white rabbit eyes. The advantages of using a carbon dioxide laser are its lack of pigment dependence, its ability to act both as a photocoagulator and as a phototransector, and its ability to deposit its energy in a well-defined area without adverse effect on neighboring ocular tissue. The main disadvantage of the carbon dioxide laser in vitreoretinal surgery is that in a fluid medium, such as the vitreous, the laser tip must be placed in direct physical contact with the target tissue to obtain a reaction.
一台波长为10.6微米的连续波二氧化碳激光器，已通过一个微型关节臂和眼内探头经玻璃体应用于白化白兔眼，以产生脉络膜视网膜病变。使用二氧化碳激光器的优点包括其不依赖色素、兼具光凝器和光切割器的功能，以及能够将能量精确沉积在特定区域而不对邻近眼组织产生不良影响。二氧化碳激光器在玻璃体视网膜手术中的主要缺点是，在诸如玻璃体这样的流体介质中，激光头必须与目标组织直接物理接触才能获得反应。
