Introduction: The present study aims to investigate the immediate discoloration effects of Nd: YAG laser on the surface of sheep iris. In this regard, the iris of a domestic sheep was extracted, and an Nd: YAG dual-frequency laser was applied to the surface of the iris. The laser wavelength setting was 532 nm, energy of 1.5 mJ, a spot size of 800 microns, and one pulse per burst. At the end of the procedure, the targeted spots were stained without iris penetration, resulting in lighter iris color. When a 20D concave lens was placed between the target and the laser source, the spots became larger in size and scattered the treatment.
Results:
As a result, this study showed that the Nd: YAG dual-frequency laser could effectively change and brighten the iris, leading to iris discoloration.
