Summary

This prospective study aims to evaluate morphometric markers of treatment response following micropulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation (MP-CPC) in patients with glaucoma. The study will assess changes in choroidal thickness and the choroidal vascularity index (CVI) measured by optical coherence tomography (OCT) before treatment, 3-7 days after the procedure, and 1 month postoperatively.

Intraocular pressure (IOP) will be measured at the same time points. The correlation between changes in choroidal thickness, the choroidal vascularity index (CVI) and IOP reduction will be analyzed. Additionally, the study seeks to determine the minimal baseline choroidal thickness associated with a clinically significant hypotensive effect after MP-CPC.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

MicroPulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation

MicroPulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation will be performed as a laser procedure for the treatment of glaucoma. Laser treatment will be applied transsclerally over the ciliary body using a power of 2500 mW. The treatment duration will be 100-120 seconds per hemifield, with 5-6 sweeps per hemifield.

PROCEDURE

Conventional transscleral cyclophotocoagulation

Conventional transscleral cyclophotocoagulation will be performed as a laser procedure for the treatment of glaucoma. Laser treatment will be applied transsclerally over the ciliary body using a power of 1.4-2.3 W, with an exposure duration of 1.4-1.8 seconds per coagulation spot.
