Variability of contact transscleral neodymium:YAG cyclophotocoagulation.
PURPOSE To study the variability of ciliary body lesions created by contact Nd:YAG cyclophotocoagulation and to evaluate modifications in probe design to reduce this variability. METHODS Contact transscleral Nd:YAG cyclophotocoagulation was performed on fresh, enucleated porcine eyes in three ways: using a standard, handheld fiber-optic probe (98 eyes); using the same probe with an adjunctive...
متن کامل2431 Transscleral contact-cyclophotocoagulation: Is there a dose-effect correlation?
Purpose: Transscleral contect-cyclophotocoagulation has been used more end more in the treatment of therapy-refractive glaucomas, in recent years. A less pain sensation, reported by the patients, during b-eatment in comparison with cycle-cryocoagulatio was one important reason for increased usuage. The dose-effect correlation for exposure time, energy used and number of the laser impacts variou...
متن کاملNeodymium-YAG transscleral cyclophotocoagulation. The role of pigmentation.
Using a rabbit model we investigated the role of pigmentation of the ciliary body in obtaining ciliodestruction by neodymium-YAG transscleral cyclophotocoagulation. There was marked destruction of the ciliary body in pigmented rabbit eyes, but no histologic effect was observed in albino rabbit eyes. These findings suggest that pigmentation of the ciliary body is important for obtaining the desi...
متن کاملTreatment of malignant glaucoma with contact transscleral cyclophotocoagulation.
Fivecasesofpseudophakicmalignant glaucoma were successfully treated with a single session of contact transscleralcyclophotocoagulation(CTCP) withdiodelaser(twenty4-Jspotsover 360°,1.5mmposterior to the limbus) after failureofNd:YAGlaserhyaloidotomy and vitreolysis. All patients except for case 2 had a preoperative diagnosis of chronic angle-closure glaucoma. At the end of the followup, all the ...
متن کاملRates of glaucomatous visual field change before and after transscleral cyclophotocoagulation: a retrospective case series
BACKGROUND The primary goal of glaucoma treatment is to lower and control intraocular pressure (IOP) and thereby prevent functional deterioration. For glaucomas that are refractory to medical and incisional surgical therapies, transscleral diode cyclophotocoagulation (TCP) is a well-established procedure to effectively decrease IOP. This study investigated rates of visual field (VF) change in p...
