Summary
Study start date: July 1, 2011
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.This is a single site outpatient feasibility study assessing the safety \& efficacy of the DLTP laser in the ability to reduce IOP in patients with open angle glaucoma (OAG). The investigational site will accrue patients with uncontrolled OAG. These eyes will be treated with the direct application of Direct Laser Trabeculoplasty (DLTP)/ Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty automated device (DSLT). Only one eye per patient is to be treated with the investigational device during the study. The laser parameters used will be like these used in the Selective trabeculoplasty (SLT) device (CE/FDA approved), but all laser beams will be applied in about one-second, through the peri-limbal. Subjects will be evaluated preoperatively and postoperatively at 1 hour, 2 hours (and hourly to 4 hours in the event of an IOP elevation in the immediate postop course), 1 day, 1 week, and 1, 3, 6 months. Patients will be followed out to 6 months.
