OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of contact transcleral ciliary body photodynamic treatment (CB-PDT) with verteporfin in human eyes.
DESIGN: Prospective interventional case series.
PARTICIPANTS: Five glaucomatous blind eyes of 5 patients.
METHODS: Verteporfin (6 mg/m(2)) was infused in bolus and then the ciliary body was irradiated transclerally with a fibre optic device. Twelve spots were placed 360° and 0.5 mm behind the sclerocorneal limbus. Laser power was 80 mW and irradiation time was 3 minutes.
RESULTS: The average intraocular pressure reduction was 30% after the first month and remained below pre-treatment levels throughout a 3-month follow-up. No serious adverse events were reported.
CONCLUSIONS: CB-PDT for refractory glaucoma was safe and efficient in human eyes; larger studies are required to evaluate its possible clinical role.
