In order to investigate the effects of laser trabeculoplasty (LT) on diurnal intraocular pressure (IOP) variations in 36 eyes of 30 cases with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) in which medical treatment was terminated, the IOP curves, recorded 24 h before as well as 24 h and 12 weeks after LT were compared. Twelve weeks after LT, significant IOP decreases were observed: 36.42% in the mean IOP, 29. 77% in the mean peak IOP and 50.04% in the mean pressure range. LT might therefore have beneficial effects on the diurnal IOP variations in cases with POAG.
为研究激光小梁成形术（LT）对30例原发性开角型青光眼（POAG）且已终止药物治疗的36只眼中昼夜眼压（IOP）变化的影响，比较了LT术前24小时以及术后24小时和12周记录的IOP曲线。LT术后12周，观察到眼压显著降低：平均眼压降低36.42%，平均峰值眼压降低29.77%，平均眼压波动范围降低50.04%。因此，LT可能对POAG患者的昼夜眼压变化有有益影响。
