The purpose of this study is to present the results of treatment of refractory glaucoma with diode laser transscleral cyclophotocoagulation (DLCT). 88 patients (from 10 to 91 years old) were treated with diode laser. The follow up was 6 months. Mean intraocular pressure (IOP) before treatment was 38.2 mm Hg, 1 week after treatment--23.8 mm Hg, 1 month after treatment--21.3 mm Hg, after 6 months--19.0 mm Hg. We repeated treatment in 5 patients (5.6%). In 2 patients we observed hypotony--about 2 mm Hg. Diode laser cycloablation is a relatively safe and effective method in treatment of advanced refractory glaucoma.
