[Comparative evaluation of transscleral laser exposure in anatomical experiment].

The identified morphological changes may indicate certain differences in the mechanisms of intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction after MP-TSCPC and LASH. The results of this study suggest that the enhancement of uveoscleral outflow of intraocular fluid and the hypotensive effect after MP-TSCPC may be associated with laser-induced expansion of the interspaces between the anterior connective tissue fibers of the CB in the suprachoroidal space. With LASH, the possible mechanism of lowering IOP may be related rather to an increase in transscleral filtration due to the appearance of slit-like interfiber spaces in the sclera, caused by local contraction of scleral fibers in the area of laser exposure. The absence of pronounced destructive changes at the histological level indicates the gentle nature of both laser techniques and the possibility of expanding the indications for the use of LASH in the treatment of glaucoma, including at its earlier stages.
