Laser Cyclophotocoagulation Surgery For Glaucoma
Most surgical glaucoma treatments work by making it easier for fluid to leave the eye. Cyclophotocoagulation (CP) takes a different approach. It works by decreasing the production of aqueous fluid.
Micro-invasive Suture Trabeculotomy (MIST) After Canaloplasty
Micro-invasive Suture Trabeculotomy (MIST) is a low risk procedure that has the potential to further reduce the IOP in eyes that have failed to respond to canaloplasty. It is neither a long nor a technically challenging surgery.

What Are The Risks Of Laser Trabeculoplasty? Who Should Consider LT?
As with all surgical procedures, there are risks associated with Laser Trabeculoplasty. Following are some of the more commonly encountered complications associated with LT.
How To Choose Which Type Of Laser Trabeculoplasty To Have
Laser Trabeculoplasty has a long track record of effectively lowering the IOP while presenting relatively low risk to those receiving this treatment. Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty has two key advantages over Argon Laser Trabeculoplasty: (1) it is repeatable;
Who Should Consider Glaucoma Treatments Other Than Laser Trabeculoplasty (LT)?
The response to Laser Trabeculoplasty appears to be dependent upon the pre-treatment intraocular pressure (IOP). In other words, the higher the IOP before treatment, the better the response to Laser Trabeculoplasty.
Can Laser Trabeculoplasty Be Repeated?
Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) may be repeated multiple times so long as there is an initial IOP-lowering response to the first treatment.[4]
