“…A similar clinical trial by Bandello et al (1993) comparing diode and argon-green lasers did not show any significant visual or clinical difference between the two modalities. Bressler (1993) concluded that the most important factor in preserving vision appears to be the production of an intense and adequately sized laser lesion and not whether this kind of burn is achieved with the green, red or yellow laser light. Longer laser wavelengths (orangehed and the infrared diode) are associated with more pain due to their deeper penetration.…”
