Selective laser trabeculoplasty for steroid-induced ocular hypertension following endothelial keratoplasty
Conclusions: SLT may be a safe and effective treatment option that reduces topical antihypertensive burden while allowing continuance of corticosteroids in steroid-responsive eyes at high risk of rejection following endothelial keratoplasty. Larger randomized studies are needed to compare SLT efficacy with topical medication in this patient group and to review any impact on graft survival and glaucoma progression.PMID:35686724 | DOI:10.1080/02713683.2022.2088800
