ABSTRACT
We performed laser iridoplasty on 15 eyes, 7 of which had medically unbreakable attacks of angle closure glaucoma and 8 eyes had plateau iris configuration. We were successful in controlling intraocular pressure in 13 of the 15 eyes. The procedure was performed in O.P.D. under topical anaesthesia with minimal complications. As is evident from our results, iridoplasty is a safe and effective procedure, rapidly gaining favour with the ophthalmologists to treat certain difficult conditions. However long term and larger studies are required to further evaluate this procedure.
