Micropulse diode laser trabeculoplasty in Nigerian patients
INTRODUCTION The term micropulse laser trabeculoplasty suggests that only a fraction of the laser power is applied to the trabeculum to effect pressure lowering. It has not yet been exclusively used in Negroes, and we wish to report on our experience in Nigerian patients. METHODS The study design is a retrospective chart review of our patients at the Rachel Eye Center in Abuja. The 810 diode ...
متن کاملMicroPulse Laser Trabeculoplasty for the Treatment of Open-Angle Glaucoma
The aim of the study was to investigate the safety and efficacy of using MLT in the treatment of open-angle glaucoma (OAG).This prospective cohort included subjects ≥18 years of age with OAG, defined as the open angle on gonioscopy with glaucomatous optic neuropathy evident from optical coherence tomography. Subjects with IOP < 21 mm Hg were classified as normal tension glaucoma and those with ...

OBJECTIVE This pilot study evaluates the pressure lowering potential of subthreshold micropulse diode laser trabeculoplasty (MDLT) for a clinically meaningful duration in patients with medically uncontrolled open angle glaucoma (OAG). DESIGN prospective interventional case series. PARTICIPANTS Thirty-two eyes of 20 consecutive patients with uncontrolled OAG (12 bilateral and 8 unilateral). ...
متن کاملTransscleral Micropulse Diode Laser for Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy
Micropulse Diode Laser Photocoagulation (MD) is designed to target The Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE) melanocytes while avoiding photoreceptors damage. The term “subthreshold” refers to photocoagulation that does not produce visible intraretinal damage or visible scarring either during or after treatment. It is well known that burns cannot be detected by clinical examination or by Intravenous...
متن کاملSubthreshold micropulse diode laser treatment in diabetic macular oedema.
BACKGROUND/AIM Enlargement of laser scars after retinal argon laser photocoagulation can give rise to deterioration in visual acuity. Subthreshold micropulse diode laser may decrease this risk. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of subthreshold micropulse diode laser (810 nm) and conventional argon laser (514 nm) photocoagulation for the treatment of clinically significant m...
