micropulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation
glaucomatous patients with uncontrolled intraocular pressure (despite maximal tolerated anti-glaucoma medical treatment) were selected for micro-pulse trans-scleral cyclophotocoagulation using an MP3 handpiece with Iridex Cyclo G6 Laser settings (2000mW of 810 nm infrared diode laser set on micro-pulse delivery mode with 31.3 % duty cycle). The laser will be delivered over three quadrants for 90 seconds for each quadrant (total 270 sec) in Zigzag mode sparing the fourth quadrant for either further intervention or a previous surgery performed. Follow up examination (for at least 6 months) will include assessment of IOP in terms of percentage of IOP reduction and sustainability of results, BCVA, and the number of medications post-operatively.
