The core objective of non-damaging retinal heating is to harness the regenerative effects associated with temperature elevation, promoting healing without causing harm to delicate retinal tissues. Maculaser’s solution employs retinal temperature monitoring designed to ensure safe, effective, and consistent treatments for every patient, taking into account inter-patient variability and differences across retinal locations.
