Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is currently treated with a variety of surgical and non-surgical approaches. Minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) involves several devices and procedures that lower intraocular pressure (IOP) by increasing aqueous outflow. The first laser-based MIGS procedure, Excimer Laser Trabeculostomy (ELT), has emerged as a safe and effective treatment option.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and complication profile of excimer laser trabeculostomy (ELT), an emerging laser-based trabecular minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS), combined with cataract surgery in routine clinical practice.
Patients And Methods: Single-site, retrospective, interventional study. Preoperative and postoperative clinical data of patients with cataract and open-angle glaucoma (OAG) who underwent combined phacoemulsification and ELT were collected and analyzed at preoperative day, one week postoperatively, and after one, two, three, six, nine and 12 months.

Purpose: To create a mouse traumatic optic neuropathy (TON) model that is reproducible, reliable, and easy to manipulate with high specificity to retinal ganglion cell (RGC) layer and no mortality. The model will be useful for understanding the pathophysiology of retinal ganglion cell death and for testing neuroprotective therapeutics.
Methods: An Nd:YAG laser was used to generate focal photodisruptive retinal damage.
