Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of selective laser trabeculoplasty after a prior failed phacoemulsification and Eximer Laser Trabeculectomy.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study evaluates the efficacy of selective laser trabeculoplasty after a failed combined procedure of phacoemulsification cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation plus Eximer Laser Trabeculectomy in open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. The success of SLT will be determined by the intraocular pressure and number of hypotensive drugs.

SLT arm

Patient receiving 'Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty' (SLT) due to failed Phacoemulsification Cataract Extraction with Intraocular Lens Implantation combined with Eximer Laser Trabeculectomy (phaco-ELT) in Open Angle Glaucoma and Ocular Hypertension to control intraocular pressure and/or glaucoma progression.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty is a laser treatment procedure to enhance trabecular aequous humor outflow and thus decrease intraocular pressure.
