Introduction
IQ 577®(577 nm, true-yellow) and IQ 532®(532, green) laser systems are solid state lasers that are
capable of delivering continuous wave and MicroPulse™ for ophthalmic applications. Improper
use of the laser system can result in adverse effects. Follow the instructions for use described in this
operator manual.
Compatible Delivery Devices
These IRIDEX delivery devices are compatible with the IQ 577 and IQ 532 laser systems:
• TxCell®Scanning Laser Delivery System
• EndoProbe®handpiece
• SlitLampAdapters(SLA)
• LaserIndirectOphthalmoscopes(LIO)
• ENTDeliveryDevices(IQ532modelsonly)
NOTE: Refer to the appropriate delivery device manual for indications for use, contraindications,
precautions, and adverse effects information.
Pulse Types
The IQ Laser System is capable of delivering a continuous-wave laser pulse in 2 modes: CW-Pulse™
and MicroPulse®.

MicroPulse (Optional)
MicroPulse (μP) is a laser delivery consisting of a group of microsecond bursts.

MicroPulse is typically used to administer subvisible threshold laser treatments to macular
and perimacular targets. When used here, the terms “subvisible”, “subvisible threshold”
or “subthreshold” denote that the desired endpoint is one in which treated tissue offers no
ophthalmoscopicallyobservablelasereffects.Nevertheless,577nmand810nmstudieshave
confirmed that subvisible laser treatment strategies can be clinically effective while inducing no
changes discernible by slit lamp observation, fluorescein angiography (FA), fundus autofluorescence
(FAF), or at any time postoperatively.1,2
Tissues receiving subvisible MicroPulse laser treatment show no such changes because:
• MicroPulselaserdeliveryisbeingusedinsteadofCW,and
• Thetotallaserenergyofsuchdosesisonlyapercentage(oftenchosenbyclinicianstobe20-70%)
of that energy needed to produce a visible endpoint.
Energy (J) is equal to [Laser Power (W)] ×[ExposureDuration(s)]×[DutyFactor(%/100)].DutyFactor
isoften5%to15%whenusingMicroPulsemode,andis100%whenusingCWmode.Clinicianshave
reported various strategies to adjust these parameters relative to suprathreshold burns in order to
achieve clinically effective subvisible endpoints.1-4
Additional parameters to consider in any laser treatment protocol, and particularly during
MicroPulse, is spacing between laser treatment spots, and the total number of treatment spots
administered.DuetothelimitedthermalspreadofMicroPulseexposures,subvisibletreatmentsoften
call for the administration of a greater number of treatment spots with denser spacing than that used
for threshold laser grid treatments.4

Warnings and Cautions
DANGER:
Do not remove covers. Shock hazard and accessible laser radiation. Refer servicing to
qualified laser personnel. Risk of explosion if used in the presence of flammable anesthetics.
WARNINGS:
Lasers generate a highly concentrated beam of light that may cause injury if improperly used.
To protect the patient and the operating personnel, the entire laser and the appropriate delivery
system operator manuals should be carefully read and comprehended before operation.
Never look directly into the aiming or treatment beam apertures or the fiber-optic cables that
deliver the laser beams, with or without laser safety eyewear.
Never look directly into the laser light source or at laser light scattered from bright
reflective surfaces. Avoid directing the treatment beam at highly reflective surfaces such as
metal instruments.
Ensure that all personnel in the treatment room are wearing the appropriate laser safety
eyewear. Never substitute prescription eyewear for laser safety eyewear.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, this equipment must be connected to a supply mains with
protective earth.
US federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a healthcare practitioner
licensed by the law of the State in which he/she practices to use or order the use of
the device.
Use of controls or adjustments or performing of procedures other than those specified herein
may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Do not operate the equipment in the presence of flammables or explosives, such as volatile
anesthetics, alcohol, and surgical preparation solutions.
Laser plume may contain viable tissue particulates.
Keep the protective cap over the fiber-optic connector when the delivery device is not in use.

Warranty and Service. Each laser system carries a standard factory warranty. The warranty covers
all parts and labor required to correct problems with materials or workmanship. This warranty is
void if service is attempted by anyone other than certified IRIDEX service personnel.
WARNING: Use only IRIDEX delivery devices with the IRIDEX laser system. Use of a non-IRIDEX
delivery device may result in unreliable operation or inaccurate delivery of laser power.
This Warranty and Service agreement does not cover any damage or defect caused by
the use of non-IRIDEX devices.

Choosing a Location
Choose a well-ventilated location within the specified operating range of the console.
Placethelasersystemonatableoronexistingoperatingroomequipment.Allowatleast5cm(2in.)
of clearance on each side.
In the US, this equipment must be connected to an electrical supply source at 120V or 240V with a
center tap.
To ensure that all local electrical requirements can be met, the system is equipped with a
hospital-grade (green dot) three-wire grounding plug. When choosing the location, ensure that a
grounding-type AC outlet is available; it is required for safe operation.
The power cord included in the packaging is appropriate for your location. Always use an approved
three-wire grounding cord set. Do not alter the power inlet. To ensure proper grounding, follow local
electrical codes before installing the system.
CAUTIONS:
Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding pin. This equipment is intended to be electrically
grounded. Contact a licensed electrician if your outlet prevents you from inserting the plug.
Do not position or use the system near open flames.
Connecting the Components
CAUTION: Do not connect two footswitches to the laser console.
NOTES: Refer to the appropriate delivery device manual for specific connection instructions.
The Auxiliary Output contact supports low voltage electrical signaling circuits of up to
5 amps and 24V AC or DC. Ensure that all wiring conforms to local electrical codes.
