DSLT (Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty) for Glaucoma

The Windsor Eye Clinic, under the leadership of Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon Mr. Sundeep Kheterpal, is pleased to introduce Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (DSLT)—a significant advancement in the treatment of glaucoma and ocular hypertension.

Recent guidance from the UK National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) recommends Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) as a first-line treatment to reduce intraocular pressure and lessen patient dependence on eye drops. Now, DSLT improves upon traditional SLT by offering a faster, more comfortable alternative for patients.

Unlike conventional SLT, which requires a contact lens and takes 10–15 minutes per eye, DSLT is non-contact and completed within seconds, enhancing both efficiency and patient experience. By eliminating the need for a contact lens, this innovative laser treatment significantly reduces discomfort, making it a preferred option for many individuals managing glaucoma.

The Windsor Eye Clinic remains at the forefront of ophthalmic care, providing patients with access to the latest advancements in laser treatment. Those seeking an effective, non-invasive solution for managing intraocular pressure may wish schedule a consultation and explore the benefits of DSLT.
