Trabeculoplasty is a laser treatment for glaucoma, performed on an argon laser equipped slit lamp using a Goldmann gonioscope lens mirror. The argon laser is used to improve drainage through the eye trabecular meshwork, from which the aqueous humour drains, helping to reduce intraocular pressure caused by open-angle glaucoma.
