Recent Publications

Microhook Ab Interno Trabeculotomy: A Novel Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery
Published in Clinical Ophthalmology, 2018.

  • Summary: This paper introduces the microhook ab interno trabeculotomy (µLOT), a minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) technique designed to reduce intraocular pressure (IOP) in glaucoma patients. Benefits include a wider trabeculotomy extent, shorter surgical time, and no need for expensive equipment.

Early Outcomes of Combined Phacoemulsification and Ab Interno Tanito Microhook Trabeculotomy in Open-Angle Glaucoma
Published in Ophthalmology Glaucoma, 2023.

  • Summary: This research highlights the safety and efficacy of combining µLOT with phacoemulsification, showing substantial IOP reduction and minimized need for antiglaucoma medications. It provides evidence supporting µLOT as a safe, minimally invasive option for managing open-angle glaucoma.
