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 کاملTreatment parameters for the efficacy of transscleral cyclophotocoagulation in rabbits using a diode laser.
PURPOSE To determine parameters for the efficacy of transscleral cyclophotocoagulation (TSCPC) using a diode laser. METHODS We performed TSCPC on 74 pigmented rabbits with different exposure powers and varying number of applications, followed by clinical observation and histological examination up to 24 weeks. RESULTS Based on observation of the clinical course, the most favorable parameter...
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 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 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...
