Summary

Aims and Objectives (Quantitative) Aim: To compare the effectiveness of selective laser trabeculoplasty with trabeculoplasty in lowering the intraocular pressure in patients with medically uncontrolled open angle glaucoma in rural China, taking into account the impact of patient acceptance of each type of treatment

Hypothesis: Mean intraocular pressure after treatment with selective laser trabeculoplasty will be lower than with surgery due to higher acceptance rates among patients randomized to receive this treatment and therefore treatment provided at an earlier stage of disease progression.
