Selecta® 7000 Glaucoma Laser System
The Selecta 7000® Glaucoma Laser System is specifically designed to perform
Selective
Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT), a treatment for open-angle glaucoma.
Why we've invested in the Selecta 7000® Glaucoma Laser System:
- The Selecta 7000 lowers intra-ocular pressure by using short pulses
of low energy laser light.
- The SLT technique is much less traumatic to the eye than the argon
laser used in the traditional ALT procedure
- The Selecta 7000 uses a selective process that reduces intra-ocular
pressure without destroying or scarring healthy cells.
- SLT can be used to effectively treat some patients who could not benefit
from ALT.
- Unlike ALT, the SLT procedure can be repeated if intra-ocular pressure
goes back up.
