24-hr Intraocular Pressure (IOP) Patterns of Glaucoma Patients After Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between Intraocular Pressure (IOP) fluctuations of glaucoma patients as recorded with an IOP-sensing contact lens (SENSIMED Triggerfish®), during two 24-hour periods after selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) for routine treatment of glaucoma.
