Laser therapy system for treatment of a collagen structure and varicose blood vessels in an eye

摘要

The present invention refers to a Laser therapy system for treatment of a sclera/conjunctiva (21) of an eye, comprising:
a dispenser (1) for a photosensitizer agent;
a 3D imaging unit (2);
an image processing unit (9) being adapted to recognize the collagen tissue structure and to determine a thickness (36) thereof;
a UVA light source (3) being adapted to a crosslinking of the collagen tissue;
e) a second Laser light source being adapted to be absorbed mainly by varicose blood vessels;
an optical system (5) for deflecting and focusing the UVA light and the second Laser light on a focus point (13) within the sclera/conjunctiva;
a processing and control unit (10) being adapted to determine a target thickness (37) and a thickness deviation (38);
a pattern for an application of the UVA light energy;
a UVA light energy to effect a growth of the collagen tissue structure until the target thickness (37) is achieved.
