Episode Synopsis
In this episode of the Interventional Glaucoma podcast, Prof. Gus Gazzard speaks with Dr. Neeru Vallabh and Mr. Dirk Mühlhoff about how excimer laser technology is transforming glaucoma treatment. They discuss Excimer Laser Trabeculostomy (ELT), which uses ultraviolet light to create precise, non-thermal microchannels in the trabecular meshwork, improving natural fluid outflow. The conversation highlights how this laser, long used in refractive surgery, is now offering a safe, minimally invasive option for glaucoma patients.
