Abstract
Laser riidectomy with combined application of the Argon and the Nd-YAG laser was performed on 25 eyes of 24 patients with primary narrow angle glaucoma(19 eyes) or pupillary block glaucoma(6 eyes). Patients were followed for from a minimum of one month to maximum of six months and were evaluated the postoperative intraocular pressure, the iridectomy patency, the number of burst and the postoperative complication. In our study, the results obtained are as follows: 1. Pantency rates of iridectomy site were 100%. 2. Postoperative intraocular pressure were well controlled except one eye. 3. Numbers of burst were obviously decreased. 4. The bleeding during the iridectomy was noted in one eye(4%). 5. Immediate postoperative intraocular pressure elevation was seen in one eye(4%).
