Transscleral red laser cyclophotocoagulation for the treatment of therapy-resistant inflammatory glaucoma.
PURPOSE To evaluate in a retrospective study the long-term usefulness of red 647 nm krypton and 670 nm diode laser for transscleral contact cyclophotocoagulation (CPC) in the treatment of therapy-resistant inflammatory glaucoma. METHODS The authors treated 48 eyes of 38 consecutive patients (mean age 36.8 years, range 6-81 years) with therapy-resistant inflammatory glaucoma secondary to chron...

متن کاملCurrent and Future of Laser Therapy in the Management of Glaucoma
There has been tremendous progress in the past decades in the utilization of lasers for treating patients with glaucoma. This article reviews the use of lasers in different areas of glaucoma, including the shift from argon laser trabeculoplasty (ALT) to selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT), laser trabeculoplasty as an initial treatment for glaucoma, new laser trabeculoplasty procedures under i...
متن کاملDiode 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...
