We are comprehensive ophthalmologists with extensive expertise in medical and laser treatment of glaucoma. With the advances in pharmaceutical development in recent past, most patients with glaucoma are managed well with topical application of drops. In some cases, laser procedures, such as SLT (selective laser trabeculoplasty) is advised. Our doctors have performed thousands of glaucoma laser procedures. These are minimally invasive procedures that are done in the office with essentially no discomfort or downtime.
We also offer the iStent procedure to patients with mild to moderate glaucoma who are undergoing cataract surgery. The device is a tiny implant that is placed into the drainage canal of the eye at the time of cataract surgery. It has been shown to reduce intraocular pressure and can frequently help limit and/or eliminate glaucoma medications after cataract removal.
