RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) performed by optometrists for patients with glaucoma and ocular hypertension: a scoping review JF BMJ Open Ophthalmology JO BMJ Open Ophth FD BMJ Publishing Group Ltd SP e000611 DO 10.1136/bmjophth-2020-000611 VO 6 IS 1 A1 Lee Jones A1 Evgenia Konstantakopoulou A1 Gus Gazzard YR 2021 UL http://bmjophth.bmj.com/content/6/1/e000611.abstract AB Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) has been established as an effective treatment to lower intraocular pressure in people with glaucoma and ocular hypertension. The procedure is typically within the remit of ophthalmologists; however, there is potential to upskill optometrists and other healthcare professionals (HCPs) to deliver the treatment. We conducted a scoping review to identify the current global landscape of HCP-delivered SLT and describe training features, clinical effectiveness and safety. Relevant articles were identified through online database searches and grey literature sources. Four articles were selected for full inclusion. This review identified training programmes for optometrist-delivered SLT in the UK and the USA. The findings indicate that more research is needed to clarify training requirements and clinical effectiveness.
