Baba Farid University of Health Sciences vice-chancellor Dr Rajeev Sood said a few surgical trials using the dual laser have been conducted successfully, and the treatment will be available to the public after a formal launch. Dedicated wards are being prepared, and in-house surgeons are receiving training to operate the equipment.
