Sandra Fernando Sieminski, MD Ross Eye Institute Buffalo, NY USA | "Numerous published studies and clinical experience in the US, Europe and Asia over the last several years have demonstrated that it is a safe and effective option to decrease both IOP and the number of topical medications necessary in many glaucoma patients. I regularly treat a wide variety of glaucoma patients with it, and my patients are very happy with the results." Ahad Mahootchi, MD The Eye Clinic of Florida Zephyrhills, FL USA | "MicroPulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation (MP-TSCPC) from IRIDEX has become an irreplaceable tool in my daily practice. It has allowed me to better individualize the care of my glaucoma patients, minimizing risks and allowing for clinical success even in challenging scenarios where I used to have none or few and risky treatment options. It is an evolving technology, and as we continue to learn more about it, we will unveil its full potential." Prof. Tomas M. Grippo, MD Grippo Glaucoma Center Buenos Aires, Argentina | "The MicroPulse P3 Device has given me over 30% IOP lowering. With patients that are non-compliant with their medication, or we are really trying to keep off their medication, the MicroPulse P3 device allows me to treat patients more aggressively" Steven Vold, MD Vold Vision Fayetteville, AR USA | "The G-Probe Illuminate is a great new tool for my complex glaucoma cases! It helps me to deliver targeted cyclophotocoagulation treatment with increased visualization of the ciliary body and surrounding working areas and allows me to treat my patients with precise accuracy to the desired tissue, especially in patients with abnormal anatomy." Marc Töteberg-Harms, MD, FEBO University Hospital Zurich Switzerland | "MicroPulse mode allows me to treat transfoveally, so it can treat conditions that other lasers can’t, such as central serous retinopathy (CSR), wet AMD, or pseudophakic CME. I routinely use MicroPulse for DME and glaucoma as well." Ahad Mahootchi, MD The Eye Clinic of Florida Zephyrhills, FL USA | “I have been using the MicroPulse Transscleral Cyclophotocoagulation (MP-TSCPC) procedure with the Cyclo G6 glaucoma laser and the MicroPulse P3 probe in my practice for more than 2 years. MicroPulse mode has proven to be an efficacious choice for many of my glaucoma patients, with significant reduction in pressure and medication use for most. I have found that after MP-TSCPC procedures, my patients experience less pain and less post-procedural inflammation than after traditional CPC.” Jonathan S. Myers, MD Director of the Glaucoma Service Wills Eye Hospital | “Since 2016, I have loved having IRIDEX‘s Cyclo G6 Laser in my surgical toolbox for many types of glaucoma, including those in late stage and refractory stages. I am a big fan because this can often save someone from incisional surgery. Of course, selecting the right patient is key to ensure good outcomes and minimal side effects.” Monisha Vora, MD Glaucoma Specialist Wills Eye Hospital | “In a study that I performed with 71 eyes of 68 patients, I found that MicroPulse Transscleral Laser Therapy demonstrated good efficacy and safety profiles with minimal vision-threatening complications in treating a variety of glaucoma types.” Ahmed Al Habash, MD Glaucoma Specialist Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University Saudi Arabia | Retina Physician Testimonials Munir Escaf, MD Retina Specialist Clinica Carriazo Barranquilla Atlantico, Columbia | | Jonathan Feistman, MD Retina Specialist NYC Retina New York City, NY | | Brian Horsman, MD Director, Retina Group Barnet Dulaney Perkins Eye Center Phoenix, AZ USA | | Brandon Johnson, MD NYC Retina New York, NY USA | | Ahad Mahootchi, MD Medical Director The Eye Clinic of Florida Zephyrhills, FL | | Walid Mangal, DO Florida Vision Institute Stuart, FL USA | | "By incorporating MicroPulse, my injection burden decreases by one-third at a minimum, which is a conservative estimate. The versatility of MicroPulse to treat retinal disorders and glaucoma allows me to provide my patients with a treatment that’s clinically effective, cost effective, and time effective.""MLT is both safe and durable. This therapy can be considered a first-line treatment for glaucoma patients, as well as patients who haven’t seen significant effects from medications." Jason Friedrichs, MD, MS Friedrichs Eye Sycamore, IL USA | "Compared to other lasers, the IQ 532 Laser with the MicroPulse module offers greater versatility because it can also be used for a range of other conditions including diabetic macular edema, proliferative diabetic retinopathy, and retinal tears. I'm comfortable offering MLT to glaucoma patients as a first-line option because of its potential to reduce intraocular pressure without causing tissue damage." David Gossage, DO, FAOCO, FAAO Gossage Eye Institute Hillsdale, MI USA | "The MicroPulse P3 Device has become an essential part of my armamentarium for use in glaucoma surgical procedures. It provides a very safe and efficacious solution for IOP control. I have used MicroPulse P3 for some of my most complicated cases but also I feel comfortable enough using it for patients with earlier disease in which we want to avoid a filtering bleb or the placement of hardware in the eye." Robert Noecker, MD, MBA Ophthalmic Consultants of Connecticut Fairfield, CT USA | "...treatment is less difficult and often takes less time than 532 nm." Dr. John T. Harriott Winston-Salem, NC | “The IQ532 Tx Cell Laser System is an invaluable adjunct in my armamentarium for a growing multitude of retinal and choroidal pathologies.
