Purpose Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) is a first-line intervention for glaucoma, with the aim to reduce the intraocular pressure (IOP). Topical non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are sometimes prescribed after SLT. However, it has been proposed that such treatment may either increase or reduce SLT efficacy. The purpose of this study was to investigate this further. Methods The study was a retrospective chart review, including 192 eyes of 192 patients, half of which received a course of NSAID eyedrops after SLT. Absolute and relative IOP reduction 3-12 weeks after SLT was compared. Furthermore, subgroup analyses, a multiple linear regression analysis, and a Kaplan-Meier survival analysis regarding time to treatment escalation were performed. Results The mean absolute IOP reduction was 4.3 +/- 3.4 mmHg in the NSAID group and 5.4 +/- 4.1 mmHg in the control group (p = 0.049). Relative IOP reduction was 17.5% +/- 13.0% and 21.8% +/- 14.8% in the NSAID and control groups, respectively (p = 0.033). The same tendency of superior results in control eyes compared with NSAID eyes was seen in an extensive subgroup analysis. A multiple linear regression analysis confirmed NSAID treatment as a negative predictor of IOP reduction after adjustment for covariates (p = 0.023). Survival analysis showed a longer median time to treatment escalation in the control group, though not statistically significant. Conclusion Topical NSAID treatment was not associated with an increased SLT efficacy. On the contrary, the present study is the first to demonstrate that SLT effectiveness may even be reduced by NSAIDs.
