Laser trabeculoplasty in Prof. Or Kaiserman

About the clinic

Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) at the clinic of Prof. Dr. Or Kaiserman in Petah Tikva, Israel, is a focused treatment to lower eye pressure for glaucoma patients. This procedure helps reduce or even remove the need for daily eye drops by improving fluid drainage in the eye. Prof. Dr. Or Kaiserman performs this specialized laser surgery, bringing years of expertise from his fellowship at the University of Toronto.

Glaucoma Treatment with SLT

Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty serves as a safe and effective option for managing intraocular pressure. The laser targets specific pigmented cells in the drainage area of the eye. This process triggers a natural healing response that helps fluid flow out more easily. Many patients choose this method to simplify their daily routine and avoid the side effects of long-term eye drop use.

The procedure includes several key features:

  • Laser application to the trabecular meshwork to improve drainage.
  • Short duration that takes only a few minutes in a clinic setting.
  • Topical anesthesia using simple eye drops to keep the patient comfortable.
  • Quick recovery allowing most people to return to normal activities the same day.

Patients receive care from a doctor who focuses on advanced laser techniques for complex eye conditions. Prof. Dr. Or Kaiserman uses his experience to determine if SLT is the right choice for each individual.

Prof. Or Kaiserman: more details about the clinic

Israel, Petah Tikva
Prof. Or Kaiserman is an ophthalmology clinic in Petah Tikva, Israel, led by Prof’ Or Kaiserman and focused on laser vision correction, cataract surgery, and cornea care. The clinic’s cornea portfolio includes advanced treatment options for progressive keratoconus, including the “Athens protocol.” This approach combines partial topography-guided PRK with corneal crosslinking, performed immediately after PRK in the described technique, aiming to reduce stromal scarring potential and minimize haze. For patients with keratoconus who also require refractive support, the clinic discusses additional options such as combining crosslinking with corneal ring implants to improve vision. On the anterior eye surface, Prof. Or Kaiserman performs pterygium surgery in a structured, step-by-step procedure. During surgery, the pterygium is removed and the exposed area is covered with a healthy, transparent conjunctival graft taken from another site in the eye. The graft may be attached using 6 sutures or a biological adhesive, and the procedure includes use of mitomycin to help prevent recurrence. The clinic also notes that pterygium surgery can take about half an hour, depending on the case. For dry eye care and eyelid gland dysfunction, the clinic provides education on advanced causes and mechanisms, including the role of eyelid and ocular-surface factors and how eyelid gland cleaning is presented as an effective treatment for dry eye symptoms. In glaucoma care, the clinic offers Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) as a short laser option intended to help balance glaucoma by lowering high intraocular pressure and potentially reducing dependence on daily drops. For patients considering refractive surgery, the clinic provides an online LASIK assessment designed to begin the evaluation process from the comfort of home by collecting vision health history and basic screening inputs. The clinic also shares detailed approaches to vision correction beyond laser, including ICL and other cornea implant options for reading and refractive needs, with explanations about recovery and topical medications after implant-related procedures. International patients are served through the clinic’s established online-first education and pre-assessment process, and the clinic is active across social platforms where it publishes surgical explanations and patient-relevant guidance. Prof. Or Kaiserman’s content also highlights complex, rare anterior segment work, including challenging corneal implant scenarios and discussions of advanced anterior solutions. Overall, the clinic blends laser procedures, cornea reconstruction concepts, and clear perioperative guidance to support patients with conditions like keratoconus, cataract, glaucoma, and pterygium.
