Corneal Decompensation after Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty
A 64-year-old Caucasian man referred for decreased vision after selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT). Slit lamp examination revealed diffuse corneal edema. Despite intensive topical treatment including steroids, corneal edema did not resolve; on the contrary, it advanced to bullous keratopathy. Corneal edema after SLT is an exceptionally rare complication and in all of the previous reports ede...
متن کاملEffect of Central Corneal Thickness on the Outcome of Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty: Texas Experience
Objectives: To determine if central corneal thickness influences Intra Ocular Pressure (IOP) lowering response of Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) in patients with medically uncontrolled primary open angle glaucoma. Methods: Consecutive patients who received selective laser trabeculoplasty during May 2011 through June 2013 were enrolled in this retrospective chart review study. Information...
متن کاملCorneal edema and keratitis following selective laser trabeculoplasty
Purpose To describe three cases of keratitis following Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT). Observations Three females with a history of glaucoma presented with corneal edema, keratitis (endothelial, epithelial) and decreased visual acuity shortly after SLT. There was variable resolution of symptoms after starting treatment with oral antiherpetics and topical steroids. Conclusions and imp...
متن کاملSelective Laser Trabeculoplasty
Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) is a relatively recent modality for treating patients with open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Similarly to argon laser trabeculoplasty, SLT uses laser energy to target the trabecular meshwork and lower intraocular pressure by increasing aqueous outflow. However, although argon laser trabeculoplasty has been used successfully for several years to t...
متن کاملEffect of selective laser trabeculoplasty on macular thickness
BACKGROUND To investigate the effects of selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) on macular thickness change. METHODS Forty eyes of 40 consecutive patients with uncontrolled primary open-angle glaucoma with medical treatment were included in this prospective study. SLT was performed to the inferior 180°, and macular thickness was measured. Data were collected before SLT, and 1 week and 1 month ...
