This type of laser is used for the prevention or treatment of angle-closure glaucoma. In this condition, the iris blocks fluid drainage and thereby increases the inner eye pressure. LPI results in a small drainage hole within the iris that permits the drainage of fluid and thereby helps to lower the eye pressure. 1, record 1, English, - laser%20peripheral%20iridotomy

Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 CONT
The earliest method of liquid penetrant testing for cracks consisted of immersing the object to be tested in a bath of light oil, removing the excess oil and then covering the surface of the specimen with chalk. When the specimen was warmed, the oil, previously drawn into the cracks by capillary action would seep out onto the surface, and the blotting action of the chalk would show the outline of the crack. 2, record 4, English, - dye%20penetrant%20test

L'essai de ressuage est surtout utilisé pour les métaux non ferreux [...] Il permet de mettre en évidence la présence de discontinuités à la surface des pièces [...] La surface du métal [...] est enduite d'un liquide pénétrant [qui] [...] pénètre dans les criques. Après quelques minutes d'attente, la surface de la pièce est débarrassée de l'excès de liquide et nettoyée. On la recouvre d'une couche mince de révélateur [qui] [...] force le liquide coloré dans les criques, à ressortir de la surface de la pièce. 4, record 4, French, - essai%20de%20ressuage
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Les méthodes dites de ressuage sont anciennes. On applique sur la surface à examiner, et après qu'elle ait été nettoyée, un liquide coloré; celui-ci, de par ses qualités propres, s'introduit dans les fissures. Un simple essuyage élimine l'excès de ce liquide coloré, et à l'aide d'un produit révélateur de talc par exemple, on voit les défauts qui émergent en surface. 8, record 4, French, - essai%20de%20ressuage
