180° versus 360° Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty in Open Angle Glaucoma and Ocular Hypertension: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Journal of Glaucoma 2024 May 7
PRECIS: This systematic review and meta-analysis found that 360° selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) is significantly more effective than 180° SLT at reducing intraocular pressure at one month and one year follow-ups, without increased serious adverse event risk.
PURPOSE: To determine the efficacy of 180° versus 360° selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) in adults with open angle glaucoma (OAG) and ocular hypertension (OHT).
METHODS: A systematic review was performed using PubMed, Embase, and Scopus databases, from 1995 to December 30, 2023, for studies comparing 180° and 360° SLT in adults with OAG and OHT (PROSPERO ID: CRD42024497832). Meta-analyses were performed to calculate nominal percent and raw reductions in IOP between treatment groups at one-month, one-year, and two-year follow-ups, as well as success rates, defined as a 20% or greater IOP reduction.
RESULTS: Nine studies with 1044 eyes were included; 491 received 180°SLT and 553 received 360° SLT. At the one-month follow-up, 360° SLT reduced IOP by 3.45% more (WMD=3.45; 95% CI: 2.02-4.88; P<0.00001) and 0.87 mmHg more (WMD=0.87; 95% CI: 0.35-1.38; P=0.0010). At the one-year follow-up, 360° SLT reduced IOP by 4.33% more (WMD=4.33; 95% CI: 2.35-6.32; P<0.0001) and 1.15 mmHg more (WMD=1.15; 95% CI: 0.25-2.04; P=0.01). At two years of follow up, 360° SLT reduced IOP by 4.86% more (WMD=4.86; 95% CI: -0.32, 10.0; P=0.07) and 1.25 mmHg more (WMD=1.25; 95% CI: -0.29, 2.79; P=0.11), however the difference was not statistically significant. Compared to 360° SLT, 180° SLT had a significantly lower success rate (OR=0.50; 95% CI: 0.35-0.72; P=0.0002). There was no difference in serious complications between interventions.
CONCLUSION: 360° SLT is more effective than 180° SLT at lowering IOP at one-month and one-year follow-ups as well as achieving successful IOP control without increased risk of serious complications.
