摘要
Diode laser is a solid state Gallium Aluminium Arsenide (Ga AlAs) laser with a wavelength of approximately 800 nm (near infrared radiation). It has a similar penetration to, and absorption within the ocular tissues as, Krypton red. Diode laser trabeculoplasty (DLT) was carried out on 20 glaucomatous eyes resulting in a mean fall in intraocular pressure of 6.35 mmHg at one month and 6.45 mmHg at three months. Over this early period DLT has an effect similar to argon laser trabeculoplasty (ALT) in the management of open-angle glaucoma.
