Glaucoma treatment?

I have been offered treatment for glaucoma using a Cyclodiode laser. Has anyone had this treatment and what happened afterwards? Thanks in advance for your help.

My Wife has had this treatment plus two lots of surgery she now has eyedrops night and morning, and thank God everything is under control. Great progress has been made in th treatment of Glaucoma so keep you chin up

this is a tried and tested method. go ahead with confidence
my mum had this treatment on both her eyes now her sight is greatly improved and she is 85 I have to wear my glasses when she dosn't to read things. She was in and out with in the day, had a bandage on her eye for a couple of days and that was it. Go for it!!! you will not be sorry, they will do one eye at a time so that you can see, it is the going into hospital twice which can be a bit unerving but you must go for it you wont regret it xx
The laser treatment punches small holes into your eyes where the fluid causing the excess pressure is released, as I am sure you are aware.

This treatment can work over a longer period but very often the holes seal up and the condition returns, an alternate treatment for this is eye drops, which are very painful but a long term control if the condition persists.

Give it a go as there is little to lose, you will have discomfort for a while after the procedure, if you are fortunate that might be the end of it but as I am sure you do anyway maintain regular check ups with your optician.

I had the treatment in both eyes and that solved the problem for a number of years (approx 5 or 6) when it no longer worked. Now I'm using eye drops (Zalatan) which is OK, too.

My friend has glaucoma and she was on Zalatan drops for a number of years and recently had the laser treatment in both eyes. She's happy not having to use drops anymore.

The treatment itself is not painful. I don't recall experiencing any discomfort or inconvenience afterwards, either. I didn't drive home -- wore those free plastic dark glasses he gave me and then caught the bus home. Just remembered how I had to follow the doctor's instructions and also keep my eyes open and steady during the procedure.

Good luck.
