Endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation (ECP) is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a laser to treat glaucoma by reducing the production of aqueous humor (fluid) in the eye. The procedure involves inserting a small endoscope through the eye and applying laser energy to the ciliary body, the part of the eye responsible for fluid production.

ECP is particularly beneficial for patients with advanced glaucoma or those who have not responded well to other treatments, such as medications or traditional glaucoma surgery. The laser energy reduces fluid production and lowers intraocular pressure (IOP), helping to prevent further optic nerve damage.

This procedure offers a safer, less invasive alternative to traditional glaucoma surgeries, with a faster recovery time and reduced risk of complications.
