Purpose: To describe our clinical experience with the efficacy and safety of micropulse transscleralcyclophoto
coagulation as a alternative treatment for refractory glaucoma.
Methods: It is a prospective, non-comparative, longitudinal interventional study conducted on 26 eyes, which
presented refractory glaucoma, treated and followed at the Mohammed V Military Teaching Hospital, for a period of
one year, between January 2019 and January 2020.
Eligible patients underwent a standardized cyclophoto coagulation treatment with micropulsed diode laser by placing
the probe 1 mm from the limbus, for 90 seconds over 360 º while sparing the meridians of 3h and 9h to avoid the
branches of the anterior ciliary artery and the posterior ciliary nerves, we used a power of 2000mw, a cycle of 35 ms.
