ABSTRACT
The present study investigates the effects of the new ErbiumYAG(yttrium aluminum garnet) laser sclerostomy in eight rabbits eyes. The energy was set at 10mJ per pulse with the frequeny of 10Hz, and the total energy for the full thickness sclerostomy procedure was rated at 90 to 150ml. Following the procedure, the mean intraocualar pressure was significantly reduced for up to 7 days, and the histopathological observation at day 7 revealed clearly demarcated wound margins at the resected sites. The sesults suggest that te ErbiumYAG laser sclerostomy may be a good supportive procedures to conventional treatment of glaucoma.
