In this episode of the Interventional Glaucoma podcast, Prof. Gus Gazzard speaks with Dr. Neeru Vallabh and Mr. Dirk Mühlhoff about how excimer laser technology is transforming glaucoma treatment. They discuss Excimer Laser Trabeculostomy (ELT), which uses ultraviolet light to create precise, non-thermal microchannels in the trabecular meshwork, improving natural fluid outflow. The conversation highlights how this laser, long used in refractive surgery, is now offering a safe, minimally invasive option for glaucoma patients.

 

The ELIOS system (Bausch & Lomb) is manufactured by MLase GmbH, located at 82110 Germering, Industriestr. 17, Germany and by WEINERT Fiber Optics GmbH, Mittlere-Motsch-Strasse 26, 96515 Sonneberg, Germany. 

ELIOS is CE marked for use in adult patients with glaucoma and is currently under investigational use in the US as part of an ongoing IDE study (FDA). The ExTra II (laser class 4) has the brand name ELIOS. The ExTra II is equivalent to ExTra and AIDA devices.
