ML6710i
Modulight's cloud-connected ophthalmic laser platform
ML6710i is a medical laser device for ophthalmology. ML6710i is designed for treatments in various ophthalmic indications. The laser is controlled intuitively from iPad app – the wireless connection allows flexibility for the treatment setup. A must-have tool for anyone in the field of ophthalmology. The laser beam is formed into a circular, adjustable and highly uniform spot by Modulight’s laser beam shaper.

Designed for Retina
Every part and feature within ML6710i is designed to fulfill one goal: Enabling safe and efficient ophthalmic treatments for patients and doctors. Read here why Bausch + Lomb chose Modulight as their exclusive laser provider.
The laser itself is packaged in an elegant and durable metallic case. The laser device is accompanied by an iPad, which is used for setting up the treatment and controlling the laser. The user interface has been optimized for easiness of use, while keeping up with the strict requirements of a medical laser.
ML6710i is connected to Modulight cloud, which enables safe storing of treatment logs, while not exposing patient data.
The laser light is formed into a uniform circular spot by Modulight laser beam shaper. The beam shaper can be attached into all common slit lamps.
ML6710i has the standard wavelength of 689 nm but according to customer wishes it can be built to include a different wavelength. When ordering, you may request a wavelength from UV to 2000+ nm – just ask Modulight sales team.

ML6710i case examples
Novel ophthalmic laser system paired with focal electroretinography for subthreshold laser therapy of DME
In the field of ophthalmic treatments, subthreshold laser therapy (SLT) has shown promise in addressing retinal diseases like diabetic macular edema (DME) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). However, the precise control of therapeutic temperatures is challenging due to variations in individual eye characteristics. Modulight and Maculaser have addressed this issue with their innovative ML6710i device. This device utilizes a combination of laser beams to achieve precise thermal dosimetry-controlled retinal laser treatments. By monitoring focal electroretinography (fERG) from the target tissue, temperature-dependent changes are analyzed, ensuring accurate therapeutic temperatures for each patient. The device features an iOS-based graphical user interface (GUI), live fundus view, and data storage in the Modulight Cloud.
Novel ophthalmic PDT laser platform to target oncology and various other retinal indications
Laser systems, in ophthalmic applications, are utilized in the treatment of various ophthalmic diseases such as in ocular oncology and age-related macular degeneration through photochemical mechanism of photodynamic therapy. In addition, these lasers can be used to activate drug delivery systems in the retina to provide targeted drug therapy. PDT is a form of a combination treatment which utilizes light energy to activate a photoactive pharmaceutical (photosensitizer) to create a photodynamic reaction. Current photodynamic therapy devices out on the market are around 20 years old and the companies that manufacture the devices, do not provide yearly maintenance services for the devices.
Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is one of the leading causes for visual impairment. AMD is charactirized by development of Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) and consequent irreversible damage in the macula. CNV means abnormal development (angiogenesis) of blood vesseld from the choroid into Bruch’s membrane, sometimes capable of even perforating retinal pigment epithelium (RPE).
AMD is classified in two categories, dry and wet AMD. The dry (atrophic) form of AMD is more common, but it may develop into wet AMD. Wet (exudative) AMD results in faster vision loss, and it is the leading cause for blindness in people over 65 years.
