Responsiveness to ripasudil may be a potential outcome marker for selective laser trabeculoplasty in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma

Abstract We examined responsiveness to ripasudil as a potential factor for predicting the effect of selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) when performed for primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). A total of 70 eyes with no history of glaucoma surgery underwent SLT between January 2015 and June 2019. Pa...
