Diode 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 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 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...
متن کاملLong-Term Outcome of Transscleral Diode Laser Cyclophotocoagulation for Refractory Glaucoma
Objective: To study success rate and long term efficacy and complications of the transscleral diode laser Cyclophotocoagulation in refractory glaucoma. Patients and Methods: In a noncomparative interventional case series, eyes of 9 patients with glaucoma resistant to conventional medical and surgical therapies were treated with transscleral diode laser Cyclophotocoagulation from 2004 to 2007. C...
