研究目的
To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a new micropulsed transcleral continuous wave diode laser in a clinical setting of patients diagnosed with open angle glaucoma, ranging from mild glaucoma to severe.
研究成果
Micropulsed transcleral diode laser is a safe and effective alternative for glaucoma therapy for patients with open angle glaucoma, providing significant IOP lowering and reduction in the number of topical glaucoma medications required for IOP control.
研究不足
The study is retrospective and includes a small sample size. The long-term effects and efficacy of MP-TSCPC beyond 12 months were not evaluated.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
Retrospective study of patients treated with micropulsed transcleral cyclophotocoagulation (MP-TSCPC) using the Iridex IQ810 laser with MP3 preset settings.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Twenty-six eyes of thirteen patients with mild to advanced primary open angle glaucoma.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Iridex IQ810 laser, MP3 handpiece, Lieberman specula, cotton swabs, neomycin polymyxin dexamethasone ointment, difluprednate.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Patients received a modified retrobulbar block, the MP3 handpiece was used with the Iridex IQ810 laser, laser was applied in a 'painting' motion along the upper hemisphere for 80 seconds/hemisphere.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Collected baseline parameters included age, gender, race/ethnicity, preoperative IOP, glaucoma diagnosis, intraocular pressure, level of inflammation, and number of medications used.
