No references found | Surgical iridectomy (removing a piece of iris) or laser iridotomy (cutting a hole in iris) provide drainage pathway to the eye fluid so pressure decreases. A laser iridotomy is used to treat acute glaucoma in which pressure in the eye rises suddenly due to blockage in the outflow of fluid. We recently received FDA clearance for the MICRORUPTOR V laser for posterior capsulotomy, peripheral iridotomy, and pupillary membranectomy procedures and wanted to find a well known company with a strong reputation and history in the laser market to distribute this product for us. |
