Single treatment laser iridotomy
Br J Ophthalmol.
1979 Jan.
Abstract
A technique is described for producing an iridotomy in the treatment of closed-angle and secondary glaucoma using a single pulse from a dye laser. It was successful in 28 out of 32 eyes treated, and no significant complications were encountered.
