SELECTIVE LASER TRABECULOPLASTY (SLT)

Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT), often a first-line treatment for Open-Angle Glaucoma, can also be effective in patients already on eye drops. SLT uses low levels of laser light to improve drainage of intraocular fluid through the natural drainage pathway out of the eye. For most eyes this improved drainage helps lower eye pressure and a single treatment’s effect lasts 2 to 3 years, and sometimes longer. Since SLT leaves the drainage canals intact, it can be repeated if the initial treatment was effective. Minor self-limited inflammation follows SLT and may aid in the eye pressure lowering effect.

Some patients can have their eye pressure controlled with SLT alone. Others require glaucoma medications also or incisional surgery in the operating room.
