GL-First Line Glaucoma Treatment...What is It
Description:
Traditional first line therapy for glaucoma treatment has historically been topical glaucoma medications, but with new studies supporting selective laser trabeculoplasty and the recent addition of glaucoma drug delivery to the market the debate has begun. This course will include three instructors, each taking a side, and debating the current literature on topical glaucoma medications vs SLT vs glaucoma drug delivery as first line therapy for our glaucoma patients.
