Trabeculoplasty
From Self-sufficiency
Trabeculoplasty is a treatment for glaucoma plastic surgery performed on the trabecula. Specifically, laser surgery is used to create small openings in the eye's trabecular meshwork from which the aqueous humor can drain to reduce intraocular pressure caused by open-angle glaucoma.[1]
