A quick and painless procedure often needed after cataract surgery. This laser eliminates posterior capsular opacifications (PCO), which occur after 20% of all cataract extractions, regardless of patient or surgeon. If you are experiencing a regression in your vision following successful cataract surgery, then you may have PCO, and this procedure could be highly beneficial.
Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) is a common and effective way to reduce intraocular pressure (IOP). Uncontrolled IOP leads to optic nerve damage, which is known as glaucoma. This irreversible form of vision loss requires quick intervention to prevent eventual blindness. SLT has revolutionized IOP management and at Surgical Eye Experts, we offer it as first-line treatment for glaucoma (and even pre-glaucoma).
This quick and painless laser stimulates and rejuvenates the drainage system of the eye. It is equally as effective as many other glaucoma interventions and can be applied multiple times if needed. Using eye drops is cumbersome and many times expensive. SLT is a non-invasive solution that can simplify the complexities of glaucoma management.
Narrow angle closure is a serious form of acute glaucoma. It occurs when narrow drainage angles in the eye shut close, leading to a rapid increase in IOP. It causes severe pain and acn result in irreversible vision loss. At Surgical Eye Experts, we offer peripheral iridotomy (PI) as a quick and effective laser treatment to prevent acute glaucoma attacks.
This comfortable, non-invasive procedure creates a small opening in the peripheral iris (colored part of the eye), ensuring proper fluid flow and reducing the risk of angle closure. PI is a preventive and durable solution with minimal recovery time, ensuring your vision remains protected.
