Laser trabeculoplasty as supplementary treatment for primary open angle glaucoma.
A prospective trial was conducted of laser trabeculoplasty randomly assigned to one eye of a group of elderly patients with bilateral primary phakic open angle glaucoma who were already taking the maximum medical treatment that they could tolerate. With a minimum follow-up of 2 1/2 years (mean 35 months) a significant fall in mean intraocular pressure of over 7 mmHg (30%) at the time of the pat...
متن کاملSelective Laser Trabeculoplasty as Primary Treatment for Open-Angle Glaucoma.
Open-angle glaucoma is a silent, chronic disorder which results in progressive and permanent vision loss. Designing the optimal treatment regimen can be particularly challenging in the management of high-risk patients with frequent loss to follow-up or a longstanding history of medication noncompliance. In this article we aim to review fundamental techniques in glaucoma diagnosis and treatment ...
متن کاملDiode Laser Transscleral Cyclophotocoagulation in Combination with Trabeculectomy for Surgical Therapy of Canine Refractory Glaucoma
In dogs, glaucoma is one of difficult diseases to be controlled. In this study, we evaluated advantage of diode laser transscleral cyclophotocoagulation (TSCP) in combination with trabeculectomy for a new treatment of glaucoma in canine subjects. Under general anesthesia, diode laser was delivered at a site 2–3 mm posterior to the limbus. After TSCP, trabeculectomy was performed to avoid postop...
متن کاملTransscleral diode laser cyclophotocoagulation for the treatment of refractory glaucoma secondary to inflammatory eye diseases.
BACKGROUND Inflammatory glaucoma is still a diagnostic and therapeutic dilemma and surgical intervention is always associated with a high risk of failure or reactivation of the inflammatory disease. In this study we prospectively examined the value of transscleral diode laser cyclophotocoagulation (TDLC) for the treatment of refractory inflammatory glaucoma. METHODS 22 eyes of 20 consecutive ...
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...
