Laser iridotomy reduces the risk of developing an attack of acute angle closure.
The laser peripheral iridotomy may be performed either prior to or following cataract surgery.
No clear benefits in preventing loss of visual field were found for eyes treated with peripheral laser iridotomy.
Once any symptoms have been controlled, the first line ( and often definitive ) treatment is laser iridotomy.
In early to moderately advanced cases, iridotomy is successful in opening the angle in around 75 % of cases.
There was weak evidence suggesting that laser iridotomy could be more effective in lowering intraocular pressure in eyes versus no treatment.
For example, Holland discovered that iridectomy and iridotomy were more effective than drainage procedures in the treatment of closed-angle glaucoma.
An opening through the iris can be fashioned manually ( surgical iridectomy ) or with a laser ( called Nd-YAG laser iridotomy ).
Nd : YAG laser peripheral iridotomy ( LPI ) may be used in patients susceptible to or affected by angle closure glaucoma or pigment dispersion syndrome.
Moreover, Holland's specific iridectomy and iridotomy methods were able to remove the danger of the iris prolapsing and, thus, simplify and improve postoperative treatment.
