The effects of Ho:YAG- (free-running mode), Nd:YAG- (continuous wave mode) and diode- (continuous wave mode) laser radiation on the degree of collateral thermal damage realized during the creation of sclerostomy canals ab interno (by an active contact method) were compared morphologically: Both the nature and extent of coagulation occurred by scleral collagen fibrils were found to be independent of the laser modality employed.
