LA Glaucoma Group is a fellowship-trained glaucoma specialty practice offering the full spectrum of medical, laser, and surgical treatment for all types of glaucoma.

We offer the complete range of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS), laser procedures, and traditional glaucoma surgery at our Culver City and Torrance offices.

Comprehensive Glaucoma Care at LA Glaucoma Group

What treatments are available for glaucoma?

Glaucoma treatment begins with medical therapy — prescription eye drops that lower intraocular pressure. When drops are insufficient, poorly tolerated, or when patients prefer to reduce their drop burden, we offer selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT), which can be used as a first-line treatment or in combination with medications. For patients who need surgical intervention, we perform the full range of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) and traditional glaucoma procedures, tailored to each patient's type and stage of disease.

What MIGS procedures do you offer?

We perform every major MIGS procedure available today: the iStent Inject W and Hydrus Microstent for trabecular bypass, Kahook Dual Blade goniotomy for removing diseased trabecular meshwork, canaloplasty for opening Schlemm's canal, endocyclophotocoagulation (ECP) for reducing fluid production, and the AlloFlo suprachoroidal stenting. Many of these can be performed at the time of cataract surgery, lowering eye pressure and reducing dependence on drops in a single combined procedure. For more advanced glaucoma, we perform XEN Gel Stent implantation, trabeculectomy, and glaucoma drainage device surgery.

What diagnostic technology do you use?

Early detection and precise monitoring are critical in glaucoma. Our offices are equipped with Zeiss Humphrey Field Analyzers for visual field testing, the latest generation OCT for optic nerve and retinal nerve fiber layer imaging with the Zeiss Forum platform for longitudinal trend analysis, anterior segment OCT for angle assessment, corneal pachymetry, and gonioscopy. We also offer iCare HOME tonometry, which allows patients to measure their own eye pressure at home throughout the day — providing data on pressure fluctuations that a single office visit cannot capture.
