Ophthalmic Laser Manufacturer
MEET LYNX™
You asked. We answered.
For the first time ever, pattern scanning is available in a laser indirect ophthalmoscope. No external laser console, no fiber tether, no wall power needed. Norlase continues its pattern of innovation with LYNX, which allows you to deliver pattern laser treatment virtually anywhere.


MEET ECHO®
ECHO combines the ultra-compact Norlase laser engine with industry-first MEMS pattern technology. Its integrated design eliminates the need for bulky tables and cumbersome cables, offering true portability and treatment flexibility.
MEET LION®
LION is an indirect ophthalmoscope integrated with a green laser source creating a first of its kind treatment device. LION is battery-powered, utilizes a wireless user interface, has voice control of parameters and no fiber tether — providing the ultimate in portability, treatment flexibility and practice efficiency.


MEET LEAF®
LEAF is a first of its kind green laser photocoagulator. Its ultra-compact design allows the entire laser system to attach directly to an existing slit lamp – with no external fibers or need for a cart or counter space.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about Norlase ophthalmic lasers. Can’t find what you’re looking for? Our team is happy to help.
Contact UsHow are Norlase lasers different from other lasers on the market?
Norlase's ophthalmic lasers have a compact all-in-one design. The laser source is built directly into the device, which eliminates the external fiber-optic cables and bulky external consoles that legacy laser systems rely on. This reduces the risk of costly fiber damage and makes the systems genuinely portable. Whether it's the LEAF and ECHO slit lamp lasers or the LION and LYNX laser indirect ophthalmoscopes, heavy laser boxes and fiber optic cable connections are a thing of the past.
All four systems include a wireless tablet interface with multilingual voice control, so physicians can adjust settings without losing focus on the patient.
Unlike traditional pattern lasers, LYNX and ECHO utilize MEMS (micro-electromechanical systems) technology — the same solid-state technology used in the automotive industry — replacing the bulky galvanometers found in older pattern lasers.
Are Norlase ophthalmic lasers FDA-cleared and CE-marked?
Yes, all four Norlase products — LEAF, LION, ECHO, and LYNX — have received FDA 510(k) clearance and CE Mark approval.
Does Norlase offer a demo or trial before purchase?
Yes, Norlase offers a demo or trial before purchase, so physicians can experience the lasers in their clinic. To arrange one, reach out to a Norlase representative at norlase.com/contact.
What kind of warranty or after-sales service is offered with Norlase lasers?
Norlase stands behind its lasers with what is positioned as the industry's leading warranty. Beyond the warranty itself, every customer has access to a dedicated support team that's highly responsive if any issue arises, plus additional training and resources if needed.
Additional training is rarely needed due to the intuitive design and ease of use.
Is Norlase's technology compatible with existing slit lamps in my practice?
Yes, Norlase's slit lamp mounted lasers are compatible with many Haag-Streit and Zeiss-style slit lamps and their clones. A Norlase representative can confirm compatibility with your specific model.
How long do I have to wait to receive a laser from Norlase after the purchase?
Norlase usually maintains an inventory of products, so we could have you treating patients as soon as the next shipping day!
Easy standard shipping makes it quick and easy to get the laser into your clinic.
What regular maintenance do ophthalmic lasers require?
Most medical laser devices require basic routine upkeep and periodic performance validation because of fiber degradation, but Norlase lasers are intentionally designed to minimize servicing needs and eliminate high-risk failure points.
Sealed and protected Fiber-Optic Cables: For both our slit-lamp units (LEAF, ECHO) and LIO headsets (LION, LYNX), the laser engine and delivery is built directly into the device. Eliminating external fiber cable tethers removes the leading cause of fiber degradation, expensive replacements, and sudden downtime.
Solid-State Scanning: Our pattern lasers utilize state of the art MEMS scanning technology, removing complex galvanometers present with other pattern lasers.
Do you offer training or technical support for the use of your lasers?
Yes, Norlase provides training to make sure physicians and staff are comfortable using the device, and a dedicated customer support team is available for any technical questions or support needs after the sale.
Which major teaching hospitals or retina institutions currently use Norlase lasers?
Norlase lasers are installed at the world's top 10 eye institutions.
