What is another word for Trabeculoplasty?
Pronunciation: [tɹˈe͡ɪbkjʊlˌɒplɐsti] (IPA) 
Trabeculoplasty is a surgical procedure used to treat glaucoma, a condition where increased pressure in the eye can damage the optic nerve and lead to vision loss. However, there are some synonyms for trabeculoplasty. One of the most common is laser trabeculoplasty, where a laser is used to make small holes in the eye's drainage system, allowing fluid to flow out more freely and reduce pressure. Another similar procedure is selective laser trabeculoplasty, which targets only specific areas of the drainage system. Non-laser alternatives to trabeculoplasty include minimally invasive and micro-invasive glaucoma surgeries. While each procedure may differ slightly, the overall goal is to reduce intraocular pressure and preserve vision.
