The Interventional Glaucoma Podcast

This special French-language episode, hosted by Prof. Florent and featuring Prof. Philippe Denis and Dr. Alice Grise-Dulac, explores the shift toward earlier interventional glaucoma integrated into routine phaco surgery. Techniques like Elios excimer laser trabeculotomy enable safe IOP reduction and decreased medication burden, making them a practical, modern approach to glaucoma care.   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.  Find out more about ELIOS : http://bit.ly/4lWBJZ1

This special Italian-language episode of the Interventional Glaucoma podcast features Prof Fea and Dr Oddone as they explore the integration of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) into routine cataract procedures. They discuss how laser-based trabecular techniques can be effectively combined with phacoemulsification to enhance clinical outcomes for patients with glaucoma.   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).

Hosted by Prof. Dan Lindfield, this first 2026 episode features Ms. Nishani Amerasinghe and Dr. Carolina Medina Martin in an expert-led discussion on improving Angle Visualisation, focusing on practical strategies to enhance angle assessment during glaucoma evaluations and MIGS procedures. The speakers share actionable tips, techniques, and equipment considerations that can be easily applied in daily practice. Common challenges encountered by clinicians at different experience levels are explored, along with pragmatic solutions to help overcome them.   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).

In this episode of the Interventional Glaucoma Podcast, Prof. Gus Gazzard is joined by Prof. Cédric Schweitzer and Dr. Marc Töteberg-Harms to explore what the data tell us about interventional glaucoma. They discuss the robustness of Elios peer-reviewed evidence on efficacy, safety, and long-term outcomes, the crucial role of high-quality data in guiding everyday clinical decisions, and the continued commitment to ongoing research and future data collection in glaucoma care.   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).

In this episode of the Interventional Glaucoma Podcast, Prof. Gus Gazzard speaks with Dr. Marc Töteberg-Harms and Dr. Timothy Hamann about the health economics of interventional glaucoma. They discuss how MIGS can deliver long-term savings and quality-of-life benefits despite higher upfront costs, highlight evidence supporting its cost-effectiveness, and emphasize the growing ethical responsibility for clinicians to discuss MIGS options with eligible cataract 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).
