ViaLase to Present Glaucoma Treatment Data at ESCRS 2024 in Barcelona
ViaLase will present clinical data and provide an overview of its business and technology during the 42nd Congress of the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons (ESCRS), September 6-10, 2024, in Barcelona, Spain. ViaLase will be exhibiting at the Teleon Surgical booth (Booth #D08), its distribution partner.
The company's presentations at ESCRS 2024 will highlight the ViaLase Laser, showcasing 3-year outcomes from the first-in-human study of the femtosecond laser image-guided high-precision trabeculotomy (FLigHT) treatment for glaucoma patients. This announcement comes shortly after ViaLase received CE Mark approval in the European Union (EU) for its ViaLase Laser, specifically for treating adult patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). The device is the first femtosecond laser to be approved for glaucoma treatment. ViaLase said the last is expected to be available to physicians and patients across Europe 'in the near future.'
In addition to its presentations at ESCRS, ViaLase will also participate in a panel discussion at the Ophthalmology Futures European Forum on September 5, 2024, in Barcelona.
