New laser treatments for glaucoma, including micropulse diode laser transscleral cyclophotocoagulation (MP-TSCPC) and endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation, offer safer and effective alternatives to traditional surgeries. These advanced procedures reduce complications and the need for post-operative medications.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Surgical Innovation
  • Glaucoma Treatment

Background:

  • Glaucoma treatment options include laser, penetrating, and nonpenetrating surgeries.
  • Traditional transscleral cyclophotocoagulation (TSCPC) is invasive and destructive.
  • Innovations focus on external application, targeted effects, and minimal manipulation to reduce risks.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the latest advancements in ciliary body laser treatment for glaucoma.
  • To provide an overview of micropulse diode laser transscleral cyclophotocoagulation (MP-TSCPC) and endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation.

Main Methods:

  • Review of recent studies on MP-TSCPC and endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation.
  • Comparison of these modalities with traditional TSCPC and filtering surgeries.

Main Results:

  • MP-TSCPC and endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation are less invasive with reduced postoperative complications and good success rates.
  • These procedures offer direct effects on the eye's inflow system, achieving comparable or better intraocular pressure (IOP) control than conventional TSCPC.
  • Lower inflammatory-fibrotic response observed compared to conventional TSCPC.

Conclusions:

  • Minimally invasive laser modalities like MP-TSCPC and endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation provide safer glaucoma treatment options.
  • These treatments can significantly decrease the reliance on postsurgical medications for IOP management.
