Laser zaps eye drops: new study tests glaucoma treatment
NCT ID NCT07390890
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests whether a quick laser treatment called DSLT can help people with glaucoma or high eye pressure use fewer daily eye drops. Sixty adults whose eye pressure is already controlled with 1-3 types of drops will receive the laser in one or both eyes. Researchers will check if the number of drops needed drops at 6 months, while keeping eye pressure stable.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Voyager DSLT laser device
What this could lead to
If successful, this laser treatment could help glaucoma patients use fewer daily eye drops while still keeping eye pressure under control.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early study with only 60 people at one site. The laser may not reduce medication needs for everyone, and effects might not last beyond 6 months.
