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]
Purpose: Indication of laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) is often conjectural due to dependency on gonioscopy and strict dichotomous classification of occludability.

The safety and effectiveness of optometrist delivered laser peripheral iridotomy
Laser Peripheral Iridotomy (LPI) is a commonly performed procedure resulting in a reduction in the risk of progression to Acute Angle Closure and subsequent glaucoma. Whilst demand for LPI has varied over the previous 25 years, non-medical clinicians have been increasingly utilised in the delivery of ophthalmic laser procedures.

Changes in IOL power after laser peripheral iridotomy based on multivariate analysis [PDF]
Background This study aimed to investigate the effect of laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) on intraocular lens (IOL) power in patients with primary angle closure disease (PACD), and to construct mathematical models to assess changes in IOL power.
