Abstract
Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) in the University Eye Hospital Hamburg Eppendorf. Material and Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 113 eyes of 113 consecutively treated patients who underwent SLT treatment between 03/2011 and 01/2014 and had a follow-up of at least 4 months. Results: Intraocular pressure was reduced by 1.08 mmHg (7 % reduction) on average. In 43.7 % of the treated eyes, additional medical or surgical glaucoma treatment was necessary within 12 months. Conclusion: SLT is not effective as monotherapy in pre-treated eyes with low target pressure.
