Selective 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 کاملSelective laser trabeculoplasty.
Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) has been shown to be safe, well tolerated, and effective in intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction as therapy in several forms of open-angle glaucoma. The preservation of trabecular meshwork (TM) architecture and the demonstrated efficacy in lowering IOP make SLT a reasonable and safe alternative to argon laser trabeculoplasty (ALT). SLT may also be effective...
متن کاملSelective Laser Trabeculoplasty: An Overview
Given the obvious quality of life concerns with medical and surgical lowering of intraocular pressure (IOP), lasers have received considerable attention as a therapeutic modality for glaucoma. Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) is increasingly being used in clinical practice as both the primary procedure and as an adjunct to medical and surgical therapy. Preliminary published evidence sugges...
متن کاملSelective laser trabeculoplasty: current perspectives
Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) has been used in the treatment of glaucoma for just over a decade. Here, we review the current literature in terms of suggested mechanism, efficacy, method of treatment, predictors of success, adverse events, repeatability, and cost of SLT. The exact mechanism by which SLT lowers intraocular pressure (IOP) remains unknown although circumstantial evidence ha...
متن کاملHerpetic Stromal Keratitis following Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty
This is a case report describing two cases of disciform corneal edema following uncomplicated selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) thought to be secondary to herpes simplex virus (HSV) given the presence of a dendrite, decreased corneal sensation, corneal thinning, and response to therapy with oral and topical antivirals. Corneal edema after SLT treatment has been reported before, but the etio...
