In 1960, an American physicist Theodore Maiman observed the first laser in action. Since then laser technology has progressed at an extraordinary rate. This article shows how one type of laser has touched the lives of thousands of people. The Candela tunable dye laser has given hope to people with port wine stain birthmarks. It also shows the duties and responsibilities of the nurse working with lasers and the possibility of the extended role of the nurse in the field of skin laser therapy.
1960年，美国物理学家西奥多·梅曼观察到了第一台运转中的激光器。从那时起，激光技术以惊人的速度发展。本文展示了一种激光如何影响了成千上万的人的生活。坎德拉可调谐染料激光器给患有葡萄酒色斑胎记的人们带来了希望。它还展示了使用激光的护士的职责和责任，以及护士在皮肤激光治疗领域扩大职责范围的可能性。
