A new laser is helping experts at the Truhlsen Eye Institute at the University of Nebraska Medical Center provide better treatment for eye diseases. This advanced laser can prevent blindness for some patients with serious conditions.

"This new laser with yellow light is currently the only one of its caliber in the U.S., and there's only one other being used in the world right now," said Quan Dong Nguyen, M.D., the McGaw Memorial Endowed Chair in Ophthalmology and director of the Eye Institute.
