MicroPulse® Laser Trabeculoplasty (MLT)
“MLT is versatile in a variety of ways: for patients just starting therapy, replacing an eye drop, as an adjunct to an eye drop or to keep them away from incisional surgery.”
Nathan Radcliffe, MDNew York Eye Surgery Center
“MLT is both safe and durable. This therapy can be considered a first-line treatment for glaucoma patients, as well as patients who haven’t seen significant effects from medications.”

MLT - Meshwork remains intact without the signs of tissue damage while still as effective as ALT & SLT1
ALT - CW laser exposures can cause high thermal rise resulting in tissue damage1

Evidence of Dose Response
• Rotatable indexing ring allows for confluent laser treatment without removing the MLT lens from the eye
• Tactile positions of the indexing ring are aligned to clock hours, thus facilitating memory of approximate location of previous subthreshold laser spots in the case the patient blinks
• Visible white reference guide assists placement of 10 confluent laser treatments per clock hour
