Yellow-FLiCkEr
Yellow Fiber Laser System for the treatment of oCular disEases
The Yellow-FLiCkEr Project has the aim to develop a new fiber laser, emitting at 577 nm, corresponding to the yellow color, for the treatment of the most diffused ocular dedeases. In particular, the framework of the project, we would like to develop a simplified model of the eye in order to investigate the interaction between the laser radiation and the eye tissues.
