| Popis: | Purpose High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) technology aims to achieve selective coagulation of the cilliary body, thus reducing aqueous humor production and lowering intraocular pressure (IOP). This study evaluated safety and efficacy of HIFU cyclo-coagulation using EyeOP-1® device in 44 glaucoma patients. Methods Glaucoma patients with uncontrolled IOP despite optimal medication were scheduled for HIFU treatment and followed for 12 months. The primary efficacy and safety outcomes were IOP reduction and major adverse events, respectively. Statistical analyses were performed using STATA v14.1. Results Fourty-four patients (23 male) with a mean age of 70 ± 15 years were studied. Mean preoperative IOP reduced from 26.6 ± 3.8 mmHg to 17.7 ± 4.3 mm Hg at month 6 and 17.4 ± 3.3 mm Hg after 12 months (P |
