Abstract
Ophthalmic laser procedures are not a significant cause of liability claims. When claims are brought, they usually allege negligence, breach of the doctrine of informed consent, or both. The most likely cause of a liability claim is laser photocoagulation for diabetic retinopathy. Among anterior segment procedures, treatment for glaucoma is most likely to produce a claim.
