Long-term outcome of trans-scleral diode laser cyclophotocoagulation in refractory glaucoma.
BACKGROUND Long-term outcome and complications of diode laser cyclophotocoagulation (DCPC) may be important, since eyes, once treated with DCPC, are less likely to be subjected to other types of interventions in the further follow-up. METHODS Retrospective review of 131 eyes of 127 patients treated from 2000 through 2004. Success was defined as intraocular pressure (IOP) at last visit 6-21 mm...
متن کاملTrans-scleral Diode Laser Cyclophotocoagulation in Children with Refractory Glaucoma. Long-term Outcomes
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of diode laser cyclophotocoagulation in paediatric patients with refractory glaucoma and to assess complications associated with this method. The study included 69 eyes in 53 children with uncontrolled refractory glaucoma who underwent diode laser cyclophotocoagulation (cyclodiode) treatment. The mean age of this group was 6.1 years (range, 0.9...
متن کاملMicropulse transscleral diode laser cyclophotocoagulation in the treatment of refractory glaucoma.
BACKGROUND Transscleral diode laser cyclophotocoagulation (TSCPC) is an established method of treatment for refractory glaucoma, but is associated with significant complications. This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of a new form of TSCPC using micropulse diode laser and trans-pars plana treatment with a novel contact probe. METHODS Prospective interventional case series of 40 eyes of...
متن کاملEffect of diode laser cyclophotocoagulation in treatment of patients with refractory glaucoma.
BACKGROUND/AIM Refractory glaucoma is glaucoma resistant to conventional management (maximally tolerated medical therapy, one or more glaucoma surgeries) and glaucoma in cases of neovascularisation after panretinal photocoagulation or cryoablation. The aim of the study was to determine the intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering efficacy of transscleral diode laser cyclophotocoagulation (DCPC) trea...
متن کاملDiode laser transscleral cyclophotocoagulation in the treatment of refractory glaucoma with iris melanocytoma.
Iris melanocytoma is a rare melanocytic nevus with distinctive clinical and pathologic features. Secondary glaucoma may develop rapidly and respond poorly to glaucoma medication in some cases. However, few data are available in the literature with respect to the appropriate treatment for refractory glaucoma associated with iris melanocytoma. Herein, we present a 28-year-old man with blurred vis...
