Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Mean washed-out IOP change post-DSLT compared to washed-out baseline IOP
6 months post-DSLT
Secondary Outcomes (8)
Complete success: proportion of eyes with ≥ 20% washed out IOP reduction post-DSLT without secondary interventions (additional medications or procedures) compared with washed out baseline IOP
6 months post-DSLT
Complete success: proportion of eyes with ≥ 20% washed out IOP reduction post-DSLT without secondary interventions (additional medications or procedures) compared with washed out baseline IOP
12 months post-DSLT
Qualified success: proportion of eyes with IOP reduction (15-20%) without increase in baseline glaucoma medications
6 months post-DSLT
Qualified success: proportion of eyes with IOP reduction (15-20%) without increase in baseline glaucoma medications

Interventions
DSLT is an innovative adaptation of traditional SLT. Rather than using a gonioscopic lens, DSLT applies laser energy directly through the limbus to the trabecular meshwork in a few seconds.
Eligibility Criteria
Eligible test subjects will be adult patients with pigmentary dispersion syndrome with elevated IOP or mild to moderate (based on AAO Preferred Practice Program criteria) pigmentary glaucoma with glaucomatous optic neuropathy and corresponding visual field/RNFL loss.
You may qualify if:
- Adult patients with pigmentary dispersion syndrome with elevated IOP or mild to moderate (based on AAO Preferred Practice Program criteria) pigmentary glaucoma with glaucomatous optic neuropathy and corresponding visual field/RNFL loss.
- Treatment naive, or washed out IOP ranging from ≥18-34 mmHg
- Central corneal thickness (CCT) 480-600 µm
- Able to complete medication washout and follow-up
You may not qualify if:
- Prior incisional glaucoma surgery or glaucoma-related procedures in the study eye
- Prior laser trabeculoplasty \<3 years
- Prior intraocular surgery and refractive surgery, except for cataract surgery unless greater than 2 years
- Patients anticipating cataract surgery within the follow-up period
- History of ocular inflammation and infection
- All other secondary glaucoma including exfoliative
- Patients unable to have DSLT treatment
