Ellex Medical recalls Integre Pro Yellow and Green laser ophthalmoscopes due to risk of scattered laser beams exiting the device during use, potentially causing eye injury.
When using a Laser-Indirect-Ophthalmoscope (LIO) as the delivery device, a scattered laser beam inside the laser cavity system may unintentionally exit through the Slit Lamp output port (SDS) and get emitted from the Objective Lens when the laser is fired.
Ellex Medical is recalling several models of Integre Pro laser ophthalmoscopes because they can emit scattered laser beams through the slit lamp output port during use. This hazard could cause eye injury if someone is exposed to the laser beam.
When the laser is fired, scattered laser beams can exit through the slit lamp output port and be emitted from the objective lens. This can happen even when the device is being used correctly, potentially causing eye injury if someone is exposed to the laser beam.
Ophthalmologists and other medical professionals who use these laser ophthalmoscopes for eye examinations are most at risk. Patients using these devices during exams may also be exposed.
