THE FIRST 1 NS SLT DEVICE ON THE MARKET
Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) is an advanced, non-invasive, primary or secondary treatment for raised intraocular pressure (IOP) in glaucoma. It uses short laser pulses of a specific wavelength to selectively target pigmented trabecular meshwork cells without causing widespread thermal damage. Standard SLT utilises a low-energy laser with a short pulse duration of 3-5 ns. This low-energy irradiation stimulates removal of damaged cells by macrophages and increases trabecular network porosity to restore effective aqueous outflow through the drainage angle. This results in the reduction of IOP to non-pathologic levels.
THE FIRST DIODE PUMPED SOLID STATE LASER DEVICE ON THE MARKET FOR SLT
The OptoSLT nano is a new laser technology that is superior to existing SLT devices on the market. It offers very high pulse to pulse stability (±2.5%). By reducing laser pulse duration to 1 ns without compromising efficacy outcomes, this new technology permits faster (up to 5 Hz) and safer SLT procedures (improved pulse energy repeatability during SLT).
With a compact, highly portable design, the OptoSLT nano is an ideal addition to every doctor’s practice. The device’s energy levels range from 0.2 to 2.0 mJ and its red diode 635 nm aiming beam ensures precise focusing for highly predictive and effective treatment each and every time.
The OptoSLT nano offers a shorter-than-standard laser pulse duration of just 1 ns, with advanced technology in the form of a more stable and efficient solid-state diode–pumped laser technology, thus offering a quicker and safer SLT treatment option.

SLT PULSE ENERGY ADJUSTMENT
DIODE PUMPED SOLID STATE LASER SOURCE – DPSS
FOR MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY AND SAFETY
The OptoSLT nano features a diode-pumped solid state laser source that offers greater compactness and efficiency than the flash lamp-pumped solid state laser source used in classic SLT devices currently available on the market. The compact and miniaturized solid state laser used in the OptoSLT nano offers additional safety and reliability benefits.
PPS™ – PULSE TO PULSE STABILITY
FOR BETTER ENERGY STABILITY AND FASTER SLT TREATMENT
The new device utilizes PPS™ technology to achieve a very high pulse to pulse stability of ±2.5%, which exceeds that of other existing laser technologies. This technology permits faster SLT procedures (up to 5 Hz) that are even safer compared to current technology on the market (due to improved pulse energy repeatability during SLT treatment).
MULTIFUNCTIONAL WITH SLIT LAMP COMPATIBILITY
USE AS COMPLETE DEVICE OR TO UPGRADE EXISTING SLIT LAMP
The OptoSLT nano has been designed with a sophisticated dual set up. This allows seamless incorporation into any practice as a complete stand-alone device with lifting mechanism and slit lamp or added as an upgrade to most Haag Streit-type, and many Zeiss-type slit lamps on the market.
COLOR DISPLAY
FOR EASE OF USE
The OptoSLT nano has been designed with ease of use in mind. Its advanced color display is easy to understand and navigate, giving the physician total confidence at all times.
PERSONALIZED DEVICE ACTIVATION
FOR COMPLETE SAFETY
The laser device is protected with a secure personalized activation system, preventing unauthorised usage. All users must enter a 3 digit electronic key code to activate the device.
INNOVATIVE DOCKING STATION PLATFORM
TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE USER
An innovative design allows the user to easily switch between the therapeutic and diagnostic modes of the device.
MOBILE AND PORTABLE
FOR ULTIMATE CONVENIENCE AND PRACTICALITY
The OptoSLT nano has a sleek compact design for maximum user convenience. Ophthalmologists can pack the laser device into a small suitcase and transport it to another operating room or hospital with maximum ease and minimal fuss.
