The article evaluates the effectiveness of classical transcleral laser cyclophotocoagulation in continuous mode and micro-pulse cyclophotocoagulation in the treatment of terminal glaucoma. There were 84 patients under observation. In the transcleral laser cyclophotocoagulation group, 6 months after the operation, the average IOP decreased below the baseline by 31.6%, while the micro-pulse cyclophotocoagulation decreased by 22.9%. In the early postoperative period, there were no complications in any case in the micro-pulse cyclophotocoagulation group, and in 3 patients in the transcleral laser cyclophotocoagulation group. Key words: terminal glaucoma, transcleral laser cyclophotocoagulation, micro-pulse cyclophotocoagulation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
