Two pulsed neodimium yittrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser systems were evaluated for contact surgery through a fiberoptic system with a sapphire tip. Pulsed Nd:YAG laser at 1060 nm was as effective as continuous-wave Nd:YAG laser in producing tissue incisions. A combination of 1060-nm and 530-nm wavelengths achieved smooth cutting at lower energy levels. Corneal endothelial cell damage occurred at the high power level (7 watts) required for smooth underwater incisions with both continuous wave and pulsed lasers.
