 Greetings

   Has anyone had the SLT (Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty)? 

   If so, would you like to share your experiences and impressions?

   As I understand it, the operation is quick, very safe, repeatable, and effective. It appears to be a huge improvement over the trabeculectomy (trab). Of course, there is no such thing as a "surgical free lunch"; in addition to ridiculously large financial costs, there are invariably side effects, at least potentially. However, there are problems, as well, with the various medications.
