IOP fluctuations, during two 24-hour periods
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between Intraocular Pressure (IOP) fluctuations of glaucoma patients as recorded with an IOP-sensing contact lens (SENSIMED Triggerfish®), during two 24-hour periods after selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) for routine treatment of glaucoma.
Interventions
SLT (single session; 180 to 360 degrees of angle will be treated)
