Testing laser treatment to lower eye pressure in glaucoma patients

This trial is testing a procedure called Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (DSLT) to see if it can lower the pressure inside your eyes and help control glaucoma. The treatment uses a special laser to target a tiny area inside your eye that controls fluid drainage. Researchers want to find out whether this laser treatment works well in real clinical practice and how much it can reduce eye pressure.

Glaucoma damages the eye's optic nerve, often because fluid pressure builds up inside the eye. This treatment exists because doctors are looking for effective ways to lower eye pressure without requiring patients to take daily medications, which some people struggle to use consistently.
