Abstract
Implementation of the micropulse technology in retinal laser therapy has led to the application of the method glaucoma treatment as well. Effectiveness of MicroPulse Laser Trabeculoplasty (MLT) is comparable to the previous ALT and SLT procedures. The therapy may be considered as first-line treatment or as a replacement or supplementation of the eye drop therapy.
