Abstract:

AIM: To evaluate the efficiency and safety of an optimized CO2 Laser glaucoma surgery system for laser sclerectomy with iridectomy. METHODS: Rabbit trials were performed to evaluate the efficiency and safety. RESULTS: IOP was significantly decreased in laser group compared with trabeculectomy group(P<0.05) from 7th postoperative day to 60th day. Compared with trabeculectomy group, histopathology studies confirmed fewer complications and better effects were found in laser group. CONCLUSION: CO2 laser sclerectomy with iridectomy is effective and safe in terms of IOP lowering.
