[Laser trabeculoplasty in open-angle glaucoma treatment--long term results of treatment].
The authors present the results of open-angle glaucoma treatment, in the cases where laser trabeculoplasty was the basic treatment. The follow-up of 53 treated patients (72 eyes) was approximately a little more than 3 years. The stabilization of the basic eye functions, i.e. the visual acuity in 76.4% and the visual field in 84.7% of the cases, was obtained. As a result of the treatment, a decrease of intraocular pressure below 21 mm Hg was obtained in 84.7% of the cases whereas the outflow facility factor c > 0.15 was observed in 72.2% of the examined eyes. The low outflow facility factor is one of the causes of the failures.
