Laser Eye Treatment for Hard-to-Control Glaucoma
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests a special laser treatment called micropulse cyclophotocoagulation for glaucoma that isn't controlled well enough with eye drops. Researchers will measure how well it works and how your eye changes after treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have glaucoma that isn't adequately controlled with eye drops or other medicines
- You are 18 years or older
- You have decided with your doctor to try micropulse cyclophotocoagulation (a laser treatment)
- Your eye has no signs of infection or inflammation right now, and no eye surgery in the past 2 months
- You can attend follow-up visits as scheduled
- You do not have significant thinning of the white part of your eye (sclera)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial looks at whether a specific eye laser treatment done through the white of the eye (called transscleral cyclophotocoagulation) works well and is safe for people getting a Boston keratoprosthesis. It may help improve comfort and vision outcomes for selected patients needing this type of cornea/eye replacement surgery.
This trial tests how well a laser treatment called selective laser trabeculoplasty works in people with open-angle glaucoma. It looks at results over 12 months to see if it helps lower eye pressure.
This study tests whether a laser treatment helps keep eye pressure stable in people with early glaucoma or high eye pressure who have not used any eye drops or medications before. It may be a good option if you are looking for a treatment that doesn't require daily eye drops.
This study tests a new laser treatment called DSLT for people who have just been diagnosed with open-angle glaucoma or a similar condition like ocular hypertension. It aims to see if the laser can lower eye pressure by at least 20% after six months without needing any eye drops.
This trial tests a laser treatment called DSLT to see how it affects eye pressure changes over 6 months. It may help people with open-angle glaucoma or high eye pressure who are currently using 0 to 3 types of pressure-lowering eye drops.
This study tests a specific eye laser treatment (micropulse) for people with open-angle or pseudoexfoliation glaucoma. It may help lower eye pressure, and the study also checks whether patients can follow the treatment plan and follow-up visits.
