Coherent Aura YAG Laser — Used Ophthalmic Nd:YAG Photodisruptor
The Coherent Aura YAG laser is a Q-switched Nd:YAG photodisruptor operating at 1064 nm, built for anterior segment procedures such as posterior capsulotomy and membranectomy. Delivered through an integrated slit-lamp microscope with a red aiming beam, the Coherent Aura YAG laser lets the surgeon place each shot with precision and adjust the energy to the tissue being treated. With an 8 µm focal spot, a 4 ns pulse and up to 45 mJ in multi-pulse bursts, this used Coherent Aura YAG laser covers the everyday YAG workload of a cataract or comprehensive practice at a fraction of the cost of a new system.
Posterior capsule opacification remains the most common late complication of cataract surgery, and Nd:YAG capsulotomy is its standard treatment. A review indexed by the National Library of Medicine covers the indications, technique and complications of Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy — the core procedure this laser is designed for.
Why Practices Choose the Coherent Aura
- Q-switched 1064 nm Nd:YAG — the standard photodisruption wavelength for capsulotomy and membranectomy.
- Fine 8 µm focal spot — concentrates energy at the focal point for precise tissue disruption.
- Single, double and triple pulse modes — up to 45 mJ maximum in triple-pulse bursts for denser membranes.
- Integrated slit-lamp delivery — stereoscopic viewing with a red aiming beam for accurate shot placement.
- Adjustable posterior offset — moves the treatment focus behind the aiming beam to help protect the IOL during capsulotomy.
- Clear control panel — energy and pulse count displayed for each shot fired.
- Complete workstation — table, power console, joystick and fire switch on a castor base, ready to roll into the laser room.
Clinical Applications
- Posterior capsulotomy — treatment of posterior capsule opacification after cataract surgery.
- Posterior membranectomy — opening of pupillary and secondary membranes.
- Anterior segment photodisruption — other procedures that require photodisruption of ocular tissue, at the surgeon’s discretion.
- High-volume post-cataract follow-up — in-office YAG treatment without referring patients out.
Who This Is For
- Cataract surgeons and ophthalmology practices adding or replacing an in-office YAG laser.
- Ambulatory surgery centers needing a dedicated photodisruptor for post-cataract care.
- Multi-location groups equipping a second laser room on a controlled budget.
