One laser: two clinical applications

Compact, practical & powerful

Safe & easy-to-use

The Merilas 810 offers full flexibility for the user, with a rapid start-up time and detachable touch-screen display with an intuitive design. To ensure safe handling, the continuous wave and short-pulse mode are set in separate menus. The wavelength of the laser can be easily identified by the colored ring around the fibre coupling.

Superior quality & longevity

Proven reliability

The Merilas 810 boasts a unique thermal-electrical cooling system which ensures quiet operation. It requires no ventilation slots, so no dust can penetrate the interior of the laser. A robust device, the housing of the laser head is made of a high-grade aluminium, meaning the laser can be moved with confidence. The laser is small and compact, allowing easy transportation, and comes with a robust transport case.

The principle of short-pulse

Tissue-sparing treatment

The short-pulse mode consists of many alternating short bursts and intervals by the laser. In contrast to the continuous wave mode, the tissue being treated needs less heat, offering a more gentle approach.

Wavelength benefits

Why choose 810nm?

The 810 wavelength is less absorbed by melanin and haemoglobin. This wavelength has the advantage of penetrating both the sclera and where the patient demonstrates excessive haemorrhage, making it ideal for treating the ciliary body, undeveloped newborn retinas and retinal tumour ablations.
