Key Points

The aim is to compare the effectiveness and safety of micropulse and continuous-wave transscleral cyclophotocoagulation.
Data from a tertiary center was analyzed for micropulse and continuous-wave treatments.
Intraocular pressure (IOP) control and use of glaucoma drops were measured.
Ocular inflammation and retreatment rates were assessed.
CW-CPC provided better IOP control compared to MP-CPC.
Less usage of glaucoma drops was observed with CW-CPC.
MP-CPC had earlier and more common retreatments.
Increased ocular inflammation was reported in the CW-CPC group, but safety was similar in both.

Implication

Comparison of micropulse and continuous-wave transscleral cyclophotocoagulation shows different effects on intraocular pressure and retreatment rates.
