In addition to the information about Avastin/Lucentis I recently posted
on the Sci.Med.Vision board, I have also posted information about the
use of the Selecta laser to treat glaucoma
using "Selective Laser Trabuculoplasty" or SLT. It appears that the use
of SLT is becoming a first-line treatment for glaucoma, in place of
drug therapy.

The article is entitled: An Update on the Use of SLT for Treating
Glaucoma

and the web reference is:

This update is also from Michael Lachman's EyeQ Report No. 9, from the
recent AAO meeting held in Las Vegas. There is a link to this report in
my web posting.
