I have had SLT treatment for glaucoma twice with great success and no side effects. The first time was in 2007 and the second time in 2012, apparently it can be repeated as often as necessary. I hope this is not too late to be useful to you. Good luck.

Glad to hear you had success with multiple SLT treatments. I'm now scheduled to have 2nd treatment after 5 years as my pressures have started to rise again.

I am scheduled to have my first SLT next month. The doctor indicated that she does the 180° instead of the 360° to minimize inflammation that could trigger pressure spike. Anyone ever heard of this?
