What to do if traditional hypotensive eye drops no longer provide relief or if it's challenging to strictly adhere to the eye drop regimen?

If you've been diagnosed with primary open-angle glaucoma, and traditional hypotensive eye drops fail to sufficiently lower the intraocular pressure or strict adherence to the eye drop regimen is not feasible, a new procedure called MicroPulse Laser Trabeculoplasty (MLT) may be your solution.

MicroPulse Laser Trabeculoplasty (MLT) is an effective method in treating patients with primary open-angle glaucoma.

Here are five compelling reasons why MLT is the best choice for you:

  1. Safety and Gentleness: MLT is a safe and gentle method of intervention, reducing intraocular pressure while minimizing the risk of eye tissue damage.
  2. Suitability for Different Stages: This method is suitable for treating primary open-angle glaucoma at both early and advanced stages.
  3. No Compensation of Intraocular Pressure: MLT eliminates the need for compensating intraocular pressure in conjunction with hypotensive eye drops.
  4. Reduced Medication Dependency: If you are using more than two medications to lower intraocular pressure, MLT can offer an alternative solution.
  5. Allergic Reactions or Non-compliance: If you experience allergic reactions to eye drops or occasionally deviate from the prescribed eye drop regimen, MLT provides an effective alternative for reducing intraocular pressure.
In such cases, MLT serves as an efficient alternative method for lowering intraocular pressure.

Before undergoing the MLT procedure, it's crucial to be aware of the following:

  • The procedure should only be performed under the prescription of a doctor.
  • It is conducted under local anesthesia and is contraindicated in the presence of allergies to anesthetic eye drops.
  • MLT is an outpatient procedure taking approximately 10-15 minutes.
  • he procedure does not require pupil dilation and does not affect the sharpness of your vision.
