ViaLase to Present Clinical Data at the 2023 ASCRS Annual Meeting
ViaLase announced that it will present first-in-human clinical data and a technology overview during the 2023 American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (ASCRS) annual meeting to be held May 5-8, 2023 in San Diego, California.
Presentations at Eyecelerator and ASCRS 2023 will provide insights into ViaLase's new technology and 2-year outcomes of the first-in-human initial study of femtosecond laser image-guided high-precision trabeculotomy (FLigHT) treatment in patients with glaucoma.
"We are excited to present our 2-year clinical data to the ophthalmic community and continue to share the potential value of the micron accuracy, noninvasive treatment of glaucoma performed with advanced image-guided, femtosecond laser technology," Tibor Juhasz, PhD, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of ViaLase, said in a company news release. "The results mark an important first step in demonstrating FLigHT's potential as a safe and effective treatment option for patients with primary open angle glaucoma. We are optimistic about the new opportunities ViaLase's FLigHT treatment can offer to practices and patients alike."
