Summary

This is a non-inferiority trial with a prospective randomized controlled design assessing patient satisfaction and complications associated with both retrobulbar block anesthetics (current gold standard) and conscious IV sedation alone (alternative choice of anesthesia) for trans-scleral diode laser (TSD). Patient satisfaction and complications will be measured using standardized patient surveys.
