Further advances in glaucoma therapy
Purpose:
Following the success of our new form of glaucoma surgery more than 75,000 patients have been treated worldwide, but significant complications do still occur. We propose to introduce new techniques and knowledge to further improve the clinical outcomes but also investigate a completely new approach to glaucoma surgery. Our new UV laser based technique will use an ultrafine intraocular probe to cut and open drainage channels to remove the excess fluid that is characteristic of glaucoma.
