Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT)

Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) is a safe, non-invasive laser treatment used to help lower eye pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma. During the procedure, gentle laser energy is applied to the eye's natural drainage system, improving fluid outflow and reducing intraocular pressure.

SLT is performed in the office and typically takes only a few minutes per eye. The treatment does not involve incisions or implants, and most patients can resume their normal activities shortly afterward.

Lowering eye pressure is one of the most effective ways to slow the progression of glaucoma and help protect long-term vision. SLT may be recommended as an alternative to glaucoma eye drops or in combination with medications to achieve better pressure control.

​​​​​​​What to Expect?

Before treatment, your doctor will place numbing drops in the eye. The laser is then applied to the drainage tissue to enhance fluid flow. Most patients experience little to no discomfort during the procedure. Follow-up visits are scheduled to monitor eye pressure and evaluate the treatment's effectiveness.

If you have been diagnosed with glaucoma or ocular hypertension, SLT may be an effective option to help preserve your vision and maintain your eye health.
