Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This proposal aims to evaluate selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) as a safe and effective therapy to control open-angle glaucoma and reduce the risk of progression to visual dysfunction or blindness in the African-derived developing world. If funded, this work will complete the characterization of SLT's safety and efficacy profile as a means of long-term disease control in this population. This work will support the translation of SLT into a structured public health initiative to reduce glaucoma-related vision loss throughout the African-derived developing world.
