what is a micro pulse
MicroPulse Laser Therapy. MicroPulse laser therapy is a retina sparing solution for the treatment of Diabetic Macular Edema (DME). With MicroPulse, the continuous-wave laser beam is chopped into a train of tiny, repetitive, low energy pulses separated by a brief rest period in between. This allows the retina to cool between laser pulses. During MicroPulse laser therapy, your doctor places laser pulses in the areas of DME. The main goal of treatment is to prevent further loss of vision, but improvement in vision is possible.
