Biometric Risk Factors for Angle Closure Progression After Laser Peripheral Iridotomy.
JAMA Ophthalmol, 2023 ImportanceLaser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) is the most common primary treatment for primary angle closure disease (PACD). However, there are sparse data guiding the longitudinal care of PAC suspect (PACS) eyes after LPI.ObjectiveTo elucidate the anatomic effects of LPI that are associated with a protective outcome against progression from PACS to PAC ...

Increase in anterior chamber angle depth after topical pilocarpine measured by spectral domain optical coherence tomography: A possible additional indicator for laser peripheral iridotomy in primary angle-closure suspects in an opportunistic set-up [PDF]
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022 Purpose: Indication of laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) is often conjectural due to dependency on gonioscopy and strict dichotomous classification of occludability.

Effect of laser peripheral iridotomy on contrast sensitivity using Spaeth/Richman Contrast Sensitivity test [PDF]
Therapeutic Advances in Ophthalmology, 2022 Background: Laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) is the current standard of care for primary angle-closure glaucoma. The existing literature lacks evidence regarding the effects of LPI on contrast sensitivity (CS) after the procedure.
