Clinical Trials
Treatment of Keratoconus With PALK Versus PK
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the visual results of patients with keratoconus treated with one of two techniques: penetrating keratoplasty (PK) vs. pachymetry and Excimer laser ...
The primary goal of the trial is to determine if laser-assisted lamellar anterior keratoplasty (LALAK) will reduce the risks of post-operative complications such as adhesions, glaucoma and...
Glaucoma Laser Trial (GLT) Glaucoma Laser Trial Followup Study (GLTFS)
To compare the safety and long-term efficacy of argon laser treatment of the trabecular meshwork with standard medical treatment for primary open-angle glaucoma.
Clinical Research of Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery
Since femtosecond laser was approved for cataract surgery by FDA in 2010, femtosecond laser assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) has demonstrated high precision of capsulotomy, reduced phacoe...
Clinical Study of LPI on Different Sites of Iris
Glaucoma is the second cause of blindness worldwide. Laser peripheral iridoplasty (LPI) is a simple and effective treatment for angle closure glaucoma. LPI can widen or reopen an existing ...

To report on the efficacy and safety of CO laser-assisted sclerectomy surgery (CLASS) compared with trabeculectomy in primary open-angle glaucoma and exfoliative glaucoma.
Femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) is an increasingly common procedure. Most laser systems require corneal applanation and thereby increase intraocular pressure (IOP). The purpose of ...
There is limited evidence on the transferability of conventional laparoscopic and open surgical skills to robotic-assisted surgery. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the transferability of...
This study investigated temperature increases in dental pulp resulting from laser-assisted debonding of ceramic brackets using a 445-nm diode laser.
The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence of pseudoexfoliation syndrome and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma and to evaluate its association with open-angle glaucoma in patients attending the D...
Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Travoprost
A cloprostenol derivative that is used as an ANTIHYPERTENSIVE AGENT in the treatment of OPEN-ANGLE GLAUCOMA and OCULAR HYPERTENSION.
Bimatoprost
A cloprostenol-derived amide that is used as an ANTIHYPERTENSIVE AGENT in the treatment of OPEN-ANGLE GLAUCOMA and OCULAR HYPERTENSION.
Brimonidine Tartrate
A quinoxaline derivative and ADRENERGIC ALHPA-2 RECEPTOR AGONIST that is used to manage INTRAOCULAR PRESSURE associated with OPEN-ANGLE GLAUCOMA and OCULAR HYPERTENSION.
Corneal Endothelial Cell Loss
Loss of CORNEAL ENDOTHELIUM usually following intraocular surgery (e.g., cataract surgery) or due to FUCHS' ENDOTHELIAL DYSTROPHY; ANGLE-CLOSURE GLAUCOMA; IRITIS; or aging.
Angioplasty, Laser
A technique utilizing a laser coupled to a catheter which is used in the dilatation of occluded blood vessels. This includes laser thermal angioplasty where the laser energy heats up a metal tip, and direct laser angioplasty where the laser energy directly ablates the occlusion. One form of the latter approach uses an EXCIMER LASER which creates microscopically precise cuts without thermal injury. When laser angioplasty is performed in combination with balloon angioplasty it is called laser-assisted balloon angioplasty (ANGIOPLASTY, BALLOON, LASER-ASSISTED).
