Glaucoma Surgery


One of two main outcomes is intended by every glaucoma surgery technique, laser or non-laser: either a reduction in the formation of intraocular fluid (aqueous humour) or an increase in the outflow (drainage) of this fluid. If alternative therapies fail to control your glaucoma, surgery may be your last resort. Surgery is not typically the initial step in treating glaucoma. The intraocular pressure can be decreased surgically by using a laser or by cutting an incision in the eye.



Types of laser surgery for glaucoma:




  • Argon laser trabeculoplasty (ALT):


  • Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT)


  • Laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI)


  • Cyclophotocoagulation
