NCT03187821

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if location of laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) that is the standard of care treatment for angle closure glaucoma is related to changes in post-operative intraocular pressure (IOP), endothelial cell count,anterior chamber angle morphology and onset of new visual disturbances.
