...Harri Rouhiainen; Markku Leino; Markku Teräsvirta Eighty-five eyes of 75 patients were retrospectively followed up for 5 years after argon laser trabeculoplasty. The effects of some treatment and patient variables on the results of trabeculoplasty were assessed. The laser power level or visible...

...François Moulin; Jean Haut To determine the current place of argon laser trabeculoplasty (ALT) in the therapeutic armamentarium of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), 211 photocoagulated phakic eyes were analyzed. 159 eyes had a 5-year follow-up, 147 eyes had an 8-year follow-up and 127 eyes had...

...Hani Rouhiainen; Piia Kemppinen Central corneal endothelial photographs were taken with a specular microscope. The cell density was calculated with a computerized image analyzer. No difference between the treated and control eyes could be found. The laser energy level delivered in trabeculoplasty...

...François Moulin; Yannick Le Mer; Jean Haut 159 phakic eyes with chronic open-angle glaucoma were treated by argon laser trabeculoplasty and followed for 5 years. According to our criteria of failure, 31 eyes were failures at 1 year (19%), 47 eyes at 2 years (30%), 66 eyes at 3 years (41%), 77 eyes...

... literature, the term laser ‘trabeculoplasty’, more widely used to describe the technique of Wise seems less precise to us. Furthermore, it can lead to confusion with trabeculoperforation procedure. There is also a difference in the efficacy of these procedures: laser trabeculoretraction has been considered...

...K. Psilas; D. Prevezas; G. Petroutsos; G. Kitsos; V. Katsougiannopoulos In 93 phakic eyes – 52 eyes with primary open-angle and 41 eyes with exfoliation glaucoma – with increased intraocular pressure, argon laser trabeculoplasty was performed. Fifty to sixty burns were made over 180° of the lower...
