abstract: The author presents the results of ND: YAG trabeculotomy on 10 eyes with open-angle glaucoma. The surgery has been carried out as last treatment before trabeculectomy. The mean intraocular pressure (IOP) before laser surgery was 35 +/- 5.2 mm Hg. The IOP decrease below 22.0 mm Hg has been achieved in 50% of eyes. The mean follow-up of the patients was 1 year.
